Planting & Care

Sow Glamour Time Carnation seeds indoors 6-8 weeks before the last frost. Press seeds lightly into the soil surface and keep moist at 65-70°F; germination typically occurs in 10-21 days. Once seedlings have two sets of true leaves, transplant into individual pots and harden off before setting outdoors after danger of frost has passed.

Choose a sunny location with well-drained soil. Water regularly during establishment, then allow the soil to dry slightly between waterings. Deadhead spent blooms to encourage continued flowering. In colder zones, apply a light mulch in winter to protect crowns.
