About the Carnation
The carnation, also called clove pink, is a flower native to the Mediterranean region and grown for well over two thousand years. Its ruffled, fringed petals come in many colors and give off a spicy scent people compare to cloves and cinnamon. That fragrance made it a longtime favorite for perfumes and scented mixes. Carnations are a classic Mother's Day flower, so this printable makes a fitting card front to color and cut out.
- Carnations smell spicy, like a mix of clove and cinnamon, which earns them the name clove pink.
- They come from the Mediterranean and have been cultivated for more than two thousand years.
- The flower is closely tied to affection and motherly love.
