Standard Carnation Flowers are an excellent choice for restaurants, fundraisers, corporate events, wedding receptions, church ceremonies, and more. They are also ideal for every day occasions. They come in many different colors and are available year round. The standard carnations are 17-21 inches long. The compact blossoms are made up of many frilled petals because the edges of the petals appear to be cut with pinking shears. The unique look of their heads and affordability makes them highly sought after.
