Fun Facts About Carnations: Carnations are one of the world’s oldest cultivated flowers, dating back over 2,000 years. The name "Dianthus" comes from Greek, meaning "flower of the gods." They symbolise love, fascination, and distinction in the language of flowers. Carnations are the birth flower for January, making them a popular gift for January birthdays. They can last up to three weeks in a vase with proper care, longer than many other cut flowers. The petals are edible and often used to add colour and flavour to salads or desserts. Carnations come in a variety of colours, each with a unique meaning—red for affection, white for purity, and pink for gratitude. They are a favourite in floral arrangements due to their long stems and ruffled petals. The fragrance of carnations is often used in perfumes and essential oils. Carnations can be grown indoors or outdoors and thrive in well-drained soil with full sunlight. They were used in ancient Rome to create garlands for celebrations and ceremonies. In some cultures, carnations are planted to honour the deceased, symbolising remembrance.
