Why? You ask. Let me tell you.
1. Carnations, generally, are fairly long lasting.
2. They come in a variety of colours.
3. They usually have a country garden fragrance which make you want to stick your nose right up to their soft petal-pom-pom and breathe in deeply.
4. They remind us of our Grandmas and Nannas.
(Most of all we like the white ones, all clustered together. But unfortunately I can't find you a photo of these this morning, so you'll have to see the orange and red!)
