Carnations are very hardy and long-lived flowers. It is perfectly normal for Carnations to look thirsty or "tired" upon arrival. They will perk up once they receive a "fresh cut" to their stems and have time to drink up freshwater. Once they arrive, all you need to do is remove them from their boxes, cut about 1/2 - 1" off the bottom of their stems, and place them in water. Store your carnations in a cool room, out of direct sunlight, away from drafts or excessive temperatures, and let them open up naturally. If cared for properly, Carnations have an average vase life of 8 - 10 days.

Carnations Must Be Ordered With At Least 7 Days Advance Notice!! Free Shipping is included in the price, with a 100% guarantee of quality. 

Carnation Care instructions:

• As soon as you receive your flowers, open their box(es) and cut strapping to remove flowers.
• Standard Carnations are shipped in grower's bunches, each bunch containing 25 stems per bunch.
• Stem Length approx 18 - 24 inches
• Remove any foliage that will fall below the water line from the bottom of the stem. Any foliage that falls below the waterline will form bacteria and affect your flowers' life and the blooming process.
• Cut 1/2 to 1 inch off the bottom of each stem, preferably at an angle, and immediately place in the prepared water.
• Place flowers in fresh, cool water out of direct sunlight, and away from heat sources or drafts.   Let Carnations hydrate for at least 4 hours before arranging, 12 or more hours is recommended.
• Check water levels frequently. Fresh cut flowers consume a lot of water when hydrating. Keep water levels high and water fresh.   
• You may receive carnations that are still in bud form. They will open naturally following this process over 2 - 3 days. If you need to open them sooner, place freshly cut carnation stems in very warm (not hot) water and in a warm (not hot) room while hydrating. You may need to refresh with warm water after 3-4 hours.
• If you need the carnations to open sooner, you may "force" the bloom by gently rolling the base of the carnation head between your thumb and forefinger. Gently roll the carnation bloom back and forth, and lightly "fluff" open the petals until the carnation head opens. Immediately place in cool water.
• Each Standard Carnation stem features 1 bloom (on average, 2 inches in diameter)
• Suggested Deliver Date 2-3 Days Before Use Date
