Carnations

One of my favorite perennial flowers to grow is our featured flower of the month the Carnation (Dianthus caryophyllus). This flower has hardy fragrant fully doubled fringes that bloom in a plethora of colors. These sparkling blossoms are perfect for the sunny side of your garden.  Its fragrant cluster will attract butterflies and hummingbirds from summer until fall and are ideal for cutting. If you start from seed, I suggest sowing them indoors in late winter or early spring. Cheers
