I can\u2019t tell you how many times a day I hear \u201cI hate Carnations\u201d. It is believed that they are a \u201ccheap\u201d flower with no life but I beg to differ. The carnation is making a comeback! (at least that\u2019s what I\u2019ve heard). There really are so many reasons to love carnations. Here are a few..<\/p>\n<h2>Carnations come in every color<\/h2>\n<p>Carnations come in probably the largest variety of natural colors of any flower. From it\u2019s tried and trues to it\u2019s fun and festive, color is just one reason to fall for these beautiful blooms. One of our bride&#8217;s favorite wedding packs, the Pantone marsala pack, features the stunning burgundy carnation. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bloomsbythebox.com\/carnation-flowers\/carnations-burgundy-fancy_1532\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Burgundy carnations<\/a> make for an inexpensive and moody pop of burgundy to any simple white or ivory palette. They are also very consistent in color. While most roses, spray roses, lisianthus, stock, and many others can vary in shade and hue on a bunch to bunch basis, carnations remain the same for the most part. A <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bloomsbythebox.com\/carnation-flowers\/carnations-pink-fancy_1181\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">pink carnation<\/a> will look the same pretty much all year round as the varieties are consistent. The saturation of carnations is another aspect we know and love. The burgundy is a deep, dark red. The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bloomsbythebox.com\/carnation-flowers\/carnations-peach-fancy_6387\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">peach<\/a> is a soft, light hue. Color is just one of many reasons to love carnations.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-19677 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/www.bloomsbythebox.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/carnations-1024x1024.jpg\" alt=\"the beautiful colors carnations come in!\" width=\"1024\" height=\"1024\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.bloomsbythebox.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/carnations-1024x1024.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.bloomsbythebox.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/carnations-980x980.jpg 980w, https:\/\/www.bloomsbythebox.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/carnations-480x480.jpg 480w\" sizes=\"(min-width: 0px) and (max-width: 480px) 480px, (min-width: 481px) and (max-width: 980px) 980px, (min-width: 981px) 1024px, 100vw\" \/><\/p>\n<h2>You can&#8217;t beat carnations price<\/h2>\n<p>Price is yet another reason to love carnations. They run an average of a little less than to a little over a dollar per stem. $1 PER STEM!! There is a lot you can do by swapping the carnation for something a little pricier. Sold in multiples of 25 stems, 100 pink carnations will cost you $91!
