Carnations
There are two types of carnations e.g. standard and spray, the standard
carnation has one large headed bloom per stem whilst the spray carnation
heads are smaller and there are around 5 or 6 heads per stem. The carnation flower
comes in most colours (but not blue or black) they are also available all
year round. The green carnation is a trend setter.
Over recent years the carnation has tended to be over looked or thought of
as an old fashioned granny flower but recently they are now coming back in
vogue as the younger girls are finding them for the first time! Over the
years, production has become limited which now has them in the same price
bracket as roses!!
They are a versatile long lasting flower which is easy to work with and will
last on very hot days out of water.
