The Mini Carnation (Dianthus) is extremely popular in floristry for two things: an incredible range of colors (including two-tone varieties) and legendary durability. It is one of the most resilient flowers available.
Expert Florist's View: Color and Durability
For us florists, the mini carnation is a reliable base for mixed bouquets. Its small, often ruffled flowers add rich texture and color depth to an arrangement that lasts. It is the modern version of the classic carnation.
Tip from Monika (Our A1 Quality Expert): "The mini carnation is a sure bet. When we select flowers, we know that cut mini carnations will last the longest for the customer, often up to two weeks. They are excellent for birthday bouquets because they bring joy for a long time, and they are also a staple for funeral arrangements, where durability is absolutely key."
