9 Carnations That Own The Most Unique Blossoms

Have the Most Unique Flowers



A trendy alternative for many gardeners in this area, the carnation is a plant that thrives in hardiness zones six through ten. Carnations come in a variety of colors and sizes and are known as "flowers of the gods". Each variation has a unique meaning intended to portray, and different situations often call for a different variation. Although carnations can be divided into three broad categories, there are hundreds of different varieties. Now we have classified 15 types of carnations, whose flowers will be bright wherever they appear.


1. Dianthus Caryophyllus


They are often red, pink, salmon, and white in color and thrive in humid environments.


2. Dianthus Chinensis Heddewigii



This unusual-looking plant, sometimes called black and white minstrels, has black velvet-like leaves and white lace around the petals. It prefers to grow in well-drained soil and in full light and can reach a height of 14 inches.


3. Dianthus Grataniapolitensis

Summer is when this plant blooms with its beautiful pink flowers. They grow in direct sunlight, but they cannot survive in cold or wet soil. Because of their thick growth, they are the perfect ground cover for any garden.


4. Dianthus Plumarius



This is a common pink carnation found in many gardens. They bloom from May to August and reach two feet tall at maturity. The petals of the flowers are often fringed, giving a distinctive carnation look that most people remember.


5. Dianthus chinensis


This variety produces red or pink flowers. They are short-lived perennials that are often used as ground covers. They thrive in full light and well-drained soil. They have a lovely fragrance and will brighten up your garden and add color to your outdoor decor.


6. Dianthus 'Superstar' (Pink)



One thing that catches our attention is that this carnation has cherry red flowers that are darker in the center. It grows six to eight inches tall and has outer marginal petals. This plant would make a wonderful border for most gardens and likes to thrive in full light.


7. Dantes Barbatus


It's a variety that will grow a bit the first year it's planted, but it's unlikely to flower during that time. This aromatic plant thrives in most conditions and can reach a height of two feet. Butterflies, birds, and bees will flock to your garden.


8. Dianthus Armeria (Deptford Pink)



This variety is another pink carnation that will look stunning in most gardens. In the wild, it can reach a height of 12 inches, but with good care, it can reach a significant height in your backyard garden. The soft pink color of this flower is often used to draw attention to other flowers.


9. Dianthus Superbus


This plant has fringed flowers that give it a very unique look. The flowers are purple, crimson, or white and grow on the ground. The flower has a pleasant aroma and can even be used to make good tea.

A successful small garden requires a big idea

You can let a large garden develop. And by 'large' I mean a garden more than 80 feet (25 m) long. All of the most successful small gardens I've seen lately have a strong idea behind them. In a small space, you can see everything at once, so it's important that everything looks good together. This principle applies regardless of shape, although many small gardens are wider than they are long. See here for general tips on the Shallow Wide Garden . Here are three successful small space garden ideas to inspire you. A plant-lover's garden After visiting Philip Ostenbring's garden (open once a year for NGS), I realized that a small outdoor space for unusual plants is a wonderful display area. There is no need to plant in a small space, in threes or in drifts, as the plants are very close to you. Each model looks great in a courtyard, terrace or patio garden. Whereas if you dot a variety of single plants around a large garden, everything can look out of p

Great Designs for Container Groupings

Once your single containers are ready to merge It's hard to fail with a group of containers. Any size group, from a simple couple to large multiples, can enhance any outdoor space. Open patios and decks become softer and more intimate when you place pots around them. A straight and simple outdoor path lined with containers can become a wave of sorts—a formal one with some plants or an informal path with others. You never know what you'll come up with by placing one pot next to another or a particular plant with others. Once you start experimenting, you'll notice many places where a container is grouped. 1. Combine bright colors This collection of colorful pots introduces the viewer to the vivid color scheme in the beds behind it, mainly blue flowers. However, to maintain exclusivity, pots get exclusive rights to colors like magenta, pink and chartreuse. 2. Formal lateralization A combination of papyrus and vases always looks elegant, but when placed side by sid
