I have these in many different colors in my flower bed. They are called dianthis, some people call them Pinks. They are suppossed to be an annual, but I have had them live for a few years, constantly blooming 9 even in winter)here in Texas. I love them.

Most of the dianthus flowers have a clove like fragrance. Some are perennial some are only annuals. Not sure which variety this is so not sure if annual or perennial.
Ohio would be cold enough in winter, depending on wether in southern or northern part of the state may make a difference if it will make it thru the winter. Well drained soil will help it succeed.
