Carnations
date back to ancient Greece and Roman times, and their family name, Dianthus,
is Greek for “flower of the gods.” Carnations remain the most popular cut
flower, and many people want to know how to grow carnation flowers. These
fragrant flowers made their debut in the United States in 1852, and people have
been learning how to take care of carnations ever since. Anyone can learn about
growing carnations and enjoy the rewards of having beautiful carnation garden
plants.
Tips
for planting Carnations Seeds
Proper care of
carnations begins before you even plant your seeds. Growing carnations will be
much easier if you plant the seeds in an area that gets a minimum of four to
five hours of sun each day. Well-draining soil without mulch, for good air
circulation, will help you grow thriving carnation garden plants.
Planting
Carnation Seeds Indoors
Six to eight weeks
before your area will be frost-free, you can start your carnation seeds
indoors. Learning how to grow carnation flowers this way is easy and will
promote flowering in the first year so you can enjoy the fruits of your labor
by taking care of carnations. Choose a container with drainage holes in it,
filling the container within an inch or two (2.5 to 5 cm.) from the top with
potting soil. Sprinkle the seeds across the top of the soil and cover them
lightly.
Water until the soil is moist and then wrap the
container in a clear plastic bag to create a greenhouse effect. The beginnings
of your carnation garden plants should poke through the soil in two to three
days. Move the seedlings to their own pots once they have two to three leaves,
and transplant them outdoors once they reach a height of 4 to 5 inches (10 to
12.5 cm.) and your area is free of frost risk.
Planting Carnation
Seeds Outdoors
Some people would rather
learn how to grow carnation flowers outdoors after the threat of frost has
passed. Learning how to plant and take care of carnations in an outdoor garden
is similar to growing carnations indoors, but it’s unlikely that your plants
will bloom the first year when the seeds are sown outdoors. Begin planting
carnation seeds outdoors by sowing them in 1/8-inch (3 ml.) deep soil that will
drain well. Keep the soil in your garden, or container, moist until the
seedlings are growing. Once your seedlings are thriving, thin them so the small
plants are 10 to 12 inches (25 to 30 cm.) apart.
Care of Carnation
Water your growing
carnations once each week, and encourage strong carnation garden plants by
fertilizing them with a 20-10-20 fertilizer. Pinch off the flowers as they
become spent to encourage additional blooming. At the end of the flowering
season, cut your carnation stems to ground level. Planting carnation seeds once
can result in years of beautiful, fragrant flowers.
Store Policies
All seeds will come in a
resalable plastic zip lock bag and placed in a bubble envelope so the seeds are
not damaged by shipping machines. All seed packets contain no fillers or other
weeds or seeds mixed in. Most have been harvested by hand & all test at a
high germination rate.
Seed Information
We guarantee that all
seed orders will contain the quantity ordered. Unlike many sellers who sell
seeds by weight, all seed our counts are almost always correct, as the seeds
are packaged and counted by hand. Seed packages are all double checked to
insure accuracy. We do our best and will often add extra seeds.
We are a seller that
caters to experienced gardeners. (germination and plant care information is
readily available online. Most of our listings include germination
instructions, so we do not ship growing instructions.
All My Seeds Are Sold
Fresh So You Can Plant them Anytime within 2 years from Purchase
***Note: It is normal for tropical
seed germination to be sporadic from as little as 30 days to 6 months or more-
so patience is required. Buyers should do their own research for plant uses if
needed.
BE
PREPARED - Some
Seed can be somewhat difficult to germinate - much patience and time may be
required - please don't be wondering why the seeds have not germinated after
short periods of time. This is normal. Several months will be needed for some
seed.
Some
seeds require some experience in growing. We provide germination guidance and
recommend that you do some research before ordering if you feel unsure. Growing
plants from seed is supposed to be fun. Sometimes it is successful and
sometimes not- this is the way it is with gardening. Because we are not there
to plant them, we cannot be responsible for germination failure due to improper
planting or climate conditions. We will always send you viable seeds
Seed is a live product
which depends on many important grower skills such as proper planting time,
seed depth, type of soil, watering, light intensity, proper use of fertilizers,
weed controls, fungicides, insecticides, soil conditions, and reasonable weather
during the growing period. These factors are totally out of the sellers
control, and germination and growing results are the buyer's responsibility and
risk.
