The Carnation is the birth month flower for January. Like the rose, the carnation is a flower associated with weddings and love and rivals the rose at Valentine's Day. Its beauty flourishes as it continues to be popular ...
... and practical filler in any flower bouquet. Carnations are very hardy and are typically the last flower in a floral bouquet to wither with their ability to rehydrate. There are approximately 300 species of carnations, coming in a wide-variety of different colors which symbolize different feelings and meanings by the color they take. Carnation flowers were made even more popular by Miss. Anna Jarvis who is credited with being the founder of Mother's Day. Miss Jarvis used carnations at the first Mother's Day celebration because they were her mother's favorite flower. Fresh cut carnations and mini-carnations are often used by florists when creating arrangements like boutonnieres and corsages.
