Approximate Seed Count: 75A delicate, classic variety with beautiful blush pink tones. This old fashioned cultivar of carnation that dates back to 1904 originating in the Mediteranian. The double bloom of this Dianthis has frilly petals that have a strong, clovelike fragrance that will outshine many stems in your collection. Not only are these blooms going to become a quick staple in your cottage garden or cut flower farm, the petals are also edible. You can use them to garnish salads or bake into cookies!
Zones 6-9
Can’t wait to see the beautiful flowers!
I haven’t gotten to plant the carnation seeds yet but I have not had an unsuccessful germination rate with your seeds in the last 5 years that I’ve been buying them. You all are great!
Seed is just as expected and excited to see if they bloom this year.
So far, so good.
Just started the seedlings and they germinated in a couple days on the heat mats.
Can't wait to plant!
Beautiful little blooms! They did take a while to show for me, however I'm in zone 5b so my growing season is shorter compared to most
Germanated quickly on a heat mat. Off the mat and growing ready to transplant early/mid april. Excited for leeks this autumn
Last year I bought seeds from my local store and I didnt get anything to germinate. This year I purchased all my seeds from MIGardener and I've had to give seedlings away cause nearly all the seeds sprouted!!!
Great germination! I'm excited to see how the onions turn out
My only complaint is that I was not prepared for how well and fast all of the seeds would grow soI had to pot up earlier than expected! I am very happy with all of the seeds I have purchased from here!
I think I got near perfect germination on these. Cauliflower has always been challenging for me to time it out and know when to harvest. I've been learning that crops that have purple or reds in them (looking at my red lettuce varieties and purple sprouting broccoli) seem to bolt less quickly than their green counterparts in heat.
