Carnations

Did you know that carnations have been the official flower of Mother’s Day since 1914? Some floral historians believe that carnations are native to the Mediterranean basin, while others trace them back to the Far East. However they arrived, carnations have been cultivated (and loved) for many years. Here are our top three reasons for sending a beautiful carnation gift to someone you love. First, they come in a rainbow of colors, from soft pastel pink, yellow, peach and white to sultry red and passionate purple. Second, many varieties of carnations smell as good as they look, with a fragrance reminiscent of sweet cloves.
