Lavender Carnations-Fancy Despite their name, these carnations are far from a soft lavender shade. These Lavender carnations feature a stunning blend of soft pastel violet, pale lilac, and smoky mauve tones that bring an instant sense of calm and sophistication to any floral design. Unlike bolder, saturated shades, these blossoms offer a gentle and soothing whisper of color that seamlessly enhances all your floral arrangements. Their ruffled petals create a lush, textured look, making them a versatile choice for romantic weddings or delicate centerpieces. RECOMMENDED SHIPPING AND DELIVERY INFO: Availability: Year-Round Since we ship our Carnations straight from our farms, they will often arrive in tight bud form and may require at least 4-7 days to open up. They are very durable and will have a very long vase life. We strongly suggest scheduling a delivery date at least 4 days before your event. If your event is on a Saturday, we recommend having these delivered on the Monday before. Because they have such a great vase life, you can even get these in 6-8 days before your event. Please note: It takes 7 days for your flowers to reach your doorstep from our farms. Therefore, you must order your flowers at least 7 days before you want your flowers to arrive, aka your delivery date, to allow for proper processing and shipping time. FLOWER SPECS: Color: Rosy, purplish-pink, and fuchsia tones blended for a bold purple-pink hue. Average Vase Life: 10-14 days with proper care. Days to Fully Open: 2-5 Blooms per Stem: 1 Average Bloom Size: 2.0" - 2.5" in width Stem Length: 20-24 inches Bunch Size: 25 stems/bunch FLOWER FACTS: Floral Fuss Factor: Easy-going, hardy, very beginner-friendly. Budget Rating: $ (Budget Friendly) Recommended Hydration Bucket: A 5-gallon paint bucket. Available here. Number of Stems/Bunches per 5-Gallon Bucket: Up to 4 bunches (100 stems). Once they begin blooming, you may need to spread them out into additional buckets; always leave room to bloom. Fragrance: Think sweet florals with a little spice — carnations carry a warm, clove-like scent that feels both comforting and distinctive. Symbolism: Carnations symbolize love, admiration, and distinction. IMPORTANT INFO: Your flowers may arrive looking a little tired or thirsty after their journey. This is completely normal — think of it like how you’d feel after a long international flight, wedged into the middle seat the whole way: a little rumpled and definitely not at your freshest. Your flowers feel the same way. A fresh trim on the stems, a good drink of water, and some time to hydrate (flower relaxation time) will help them perk up quickly. Please note that flower colors may vary slightly due to natural growing conditions and differences in screen display settings. We always strive to ship the exact product you order. However, occasionally, due to circumstances beyond our control - weather conditions, market fluctuations, or an increase in weekly demand - substitutions may be necessary. We will contact you, if possible, as soon as we are made aware of this to discuss available options or substitutions. RECOMMENDED SUBSTITUTIONS: Sometimes flowers have a mind of their own — seasons shift, blooms vary, and Mother Nature likes to keep things interesting. These flowers share a similar look, feel, or design style and make beautiful alternatives. Spray roses, lisianthus, mini gerberas, and chrysanthemums COMPLEMENTARY PAIRINGS: Think of these as the floral version of great dinner guests — they naturally get along and bring out the best in each other. Roses, Lisianthus, Baby’s Breath, Stock, Disbuds
