Carnation Bouquets Delivered
Carnations’ beautifully textured petals, pretty colours, and delicate scent has made them a mainstay of bouquets throughout the seasons. Whether you’re sending flowers for a birthday or anniversary, or simply to brighten someone’s day, carnation bouquets offer both beauty and longevity. These popular blooms come in a stunning palette ranging from soft pastel pinks and creamy whites to bold reds, rich purples, and even lime greens.
One of the biggest advantages of choosing carnations is their long vase life. With proper care, cut carnations can last two weeks (or more!), so they’ll stay fresh and vibrant for much longer than other flowers.
Our florists have paired carnations with a selection of popular blooms like lisianthus, lilies, roses, and chrysanthemums, to create eye-catching bouquets for any occasion. Whether you're ordering a romantic bouquet, a cheerful bunch for a friend, or sending condolences, carnations are a classic and versatile choice that never go out of style.

In the language of flowers, carnations symbolise love, fascination, distinction, and devotion - perfect for sending a heartfelt message! The different colours of carnation also have meanings of their own:
Pink Carnations: Gratitude, or a mother’s love (perfect for Mother’s Day!)
White Carnations: Purity and fortune.
Red Carnations: Affection and love.
Purple Carnations: Capriciousness.
One of the reasons we love carnations is they’re also very long lasting, with a vase life of up to 3 weeks if you’re lucky! Of course, you can help them to thrive and look beautiful for longer by following our care tips:
Step 1: When your carnations arrive, trim 2-3cm off the stems and remove any leaves that will fall below the waterline.
Step 2: Fill your vase with room temperature water, and add the flower food.
Step 3: Put your carnations in the vase - try to use a slightly wider vase, so they’re not packed too tightly. This will help them to bloom even more beautifully.
Step 4: Display the flowers in a cool, light area, away from draughts, heat, direct sunlight, and fresh fruit.
Step 5: Change the water every 2 days and re-trim the stems to keep your carnations well hydrated.
