• GREEN THEME • an entire palette inspired by the range of color in just one flower…that flower is this week’s muse; the earth tone striated moss green carnation ‘Paoletto’. From caramel to merlot to snappy fresh green grass, this flower has it all!

I love love love all one variety flower arrangements. Typically I’ll go for flowers that have lasting power as we head into the warmer months, and trusty carnation does that marvelously. Epic, dense ruffles, long lasting…and sometimes fragrant (usually the original dianthus varieties have a beautiful clove fragrance) - what’s not to love?
