My 'Early Bird Radiance' Carnations in May 2011, shortly after transplant. |
Growing Tips: Plant in full sun and water regularly. Deadhead spent flowers for more blooms. In late July, trim back all stems from spent flowers, about 3" from the base of the plant for new blooms in August.
Perennial Tips: Trim back all stems from spent flowers, about 3" from the base of the plant at the end of the summer, cover with hazel nut shell mulch for the winter.
