Historically, I've seen carnations jump in price from 50 cents to 2 dollars per stem on Valentine's Day. White bears the message of ardent love and a good luck gift to a woman. It signifies innocence, a sweet and lovely person, and pure love.

Carnations have been around since Jesus Christ was walking the earth. According to stories his mother Mary cried at the foot of the cross when Jesus was being crucified, and a carnation grew where the tears had dropped. They are so common that many people like to decorate their gardens or patio area with these flowers.They grow in many colours also.

Yes, you can cut back carnations, especially after they finish blooming. This helps promote new growth and can encourage a second flowering. Trim the stems back to about 2-3 inches above the ground to maintain plant health and shape. Additionally, removing dead flowers, or deadheading, can also enhance their overall appearance and longevity.

they can come in all different colors. you can even buy white ones and add whatever color you like to the water and the flower will turn that color!

The large carnation of flower bouquets (Dianthus caryophyllus) comes from a plant that grows to be about 30 inches (80cm) tall. The straight, strong stems can be 18-24 inches long. The carnation plant needs full sun (at least 6 hours per day), a soil rich in organic matter and well-drained, moist, not wet, soil.

Smelling carnations can evoke feelings of love, admiration, and gratitude, as these flowers are often associated with positive emotions and sentiments. In some cultures, their fragrance symbolizes fascination and distinction. Additionally, the scent of carnations can be linked to specific memories or experiences, making it a powerful olfactory trigger for nostalgia.

In Paul's case members of the faculty don't like Paul's carnation because they think It suggests that he's not taking things seriously enough.

because in the olden days the Indians thought red represented a person of there tribe that was a mother that just had a baby so know we follow that and that's why>>>

One thing I found out with my years at a retail garden center is that geraniums don't need the amount of water that we think.

Geraniums like to dry out almost completely before re watering. You want to see the dirt pull away from the side of the container before watering.

If you notice, in the cemetarys there are alot of 'spikes, vinca vine, and geraniums in the urns. The reason is because the are very tolerant of drying out and do much better without any attention.

I find that geraniums do much better in partial sun. All day early sun is fine but too much late day hot sun from the west is too hard on them.

Do remember to dead head your geraniums right at the joint of the stem so that it almost snaps when it comes off. If you don't do it there you won't get the amount of blooms that a geranium can put out in a season! Small amount of fertilizer if any.
