Planting Tips:
Start seeds indoors 8–10 weeks before your last expected frost for the earliest blooms. Press seeds gently into the soil surface and lightly cover. Keep soil consistently moist during germination. Transplant seedlings outdoors after danger of frost has passed. Carnations prefer fertile, well-drained soil and benefit from regular deadheading to encourage continuous flowering. Provide good air circulation and avoid overwatering to help prevent disease.
