Planting & Care
Sow carnation seeds indoors 6-8 weeks before the last frost or directly outdoors after the danger of frost has passed. Press seeds lightly into the soil surface; they need light to germinate. Keep the soil consistently moist and maintain a temperature around 65-70°F (18-21°C). Germination typically occurs in 10-21 days.
Once seedlings have two sets of true leaves, transplant them to individual pots or space them in the garden. Water regularly, allowing the soil to dry slightly between waterings. Deadhead spent blooms to encourage continued flowering. In colder zones, provide winter protection or grow as annuals.
