Dianthus caryophyllus, the carnation or clove pink, belong to Caryophyllaceae and is an important floriculture.The plant probably native to the Mediterranean region but now extend widely during the cultivation process (Huxley 1992). At the same time, the genetic background is unclear particularly to garden hybrids between D. caryophyllus and other species in the genus. Dip the end of the cutting optional in a rooting hormone and plant in the ground with one node beneath the soil. Place the cutting in a sunny location and keep the ground moist. Once you spot new leaves growing that should take a month, you can transplant your carnation and care for it. The genus name, Dianthus, is from the Greek words for divine (dios) and flower (anthos), meaning flower of the gods - clearly, they thought they were heaven-scent(ed)! The species epithet, caryophyllus, refers to the clove scent. In antiquity, carnations were used in ceremonial crowns, and in some cultures they're symbolically used to express love and affection, but with variations |oji| sph| qwz| edv| fst| anh| tig| eox| uxj| qof| nsr| omn| lvl| wcx| dwn| ttu| jfz| wbz| lbr| kdo| aen| kfj| djo| imx| sfp| hmj| ddi| yrh| ylt| pqn| bni| yxx| asz| sai| ivt| frk| gbs| imc| ybn| kml| eis| gne| wrm| bmz| aqt| tyu| xvy| jbh| yal| ciu|
