General Information

Carnations are popular flowers used on all occasions. The plant has medium-sized fully double flowers with a sweet, clove-like fragrance. They are grown garden annuals and also loved as cut flowers. The soft fringed petals in white, yellow, pink, purple, red and apricot orange are long lasting on their long stamens where there are clusters of two to five flowers. Carnations may be grown in pots, but flower rather poorly.

The Importance of Collaboration

"Collaboration and reciprocal goodwill are indispensable for good work."

*

"It is only in harmonious collaboration that effective work can be done. The important thing is to find the point on which you can all agree - and after this is firmly established, each one must be ready to yield his personal will in order to keep intact this point of harmony.

- The Mother
