Carnation Chabaud Orange Sherbet






Product Description
Carnation ‘Chabaud Orange Sherbet’
Dianthus caryophyllus
You’ll be drawn to this fiery beauty like a moth to a flame. Flowers are a mix of single and double blooms in a range of peach, coral and raspberry. One of the most fragrant flowers we grow, this old fashioned carnation is best grown as an annual. These beauties bloom all summer long from an early sowing. The tall stems and extremely long vase life make them an ideal cut flower. Flowers are borne in sprays and smell like cloves.
