Carnation bouquets

Carnation bouquets – a modern classic for the demanding

Carnations have long been labeled "old-fashioned". Today, they are coming back with renewed strength - fresh, stylish, surprisingly versatile. Carnation bouquets are a great choice for those who value elegance but do not like banality. These flowers fit perfectly into current trends - both in minimalist bouquets and more elaborate compositions.

What makes them stand out? First of all, their form. Their petals are full, wavy, sometimes almost lacy – they give the composition depth without exaggeration. A bouquet of carnations does not shout – it speaks calmly, but with class. These are not flowers that disappear into the background. They can dominate the entire setting, but they never do it intrusively.

While working on the interior design of a boutique hotel in the center of Krakow, I used white carnations in tall glass vessels. The effect? Guests asked what these unusual flowers were – and it was precisely a bouquet of white carnations, in a very simple version. No additions, no combinations. Just form and freshness.

Carnations are a good choice for both formal and everyday arrangements. You can order them as an expression of gratitude, thanks, or a spontaneous gesture without any occasion. Their versatility does not mean boredom – on the contrary, they give room for creativity.

In the Florima Flowers collection you will find both single-colour bouquets and those that combine different shades – from deep red to powder pink. All prepared to maintain style and freshness for several days. That is why the carnation bouquet is coming back to the salons. And it will stay for a long time.

Why choose a carnation bouquet? An advantage that is visible at first glance

At first glance, carnations may seem modest. But it only takes a moment to understand why a bouquet of carnation flowers is a choice that never disappoints. Their greatest asset? Durability. Well-prepared compositions of these flowers can stay fresh for up to 10 days. And that's quite a lot in this industry.

Floristically speaking, carnations are nice to work with. They don't require much care, they endure transport very well and don't wither after an hour out of water. That's why in our flower shop we often recommend them to clients who are looking for a bouquet for a gift but can't deliver it right away.

Carnation bouquets delight with their variety of colors. Intense burgundy, classic white, pastel salmon, and even two-color varieties - the choice is wide. Thanks to this, it is easy to match them to the occasion and the personality of the recipient. Are you looking for something subtle? A bouquet of white carnations will hit the mark. Do you need something more expressive? Go for deep red or purple.

The symbolism of these flowers also works in their favor. Carnations represent loyalty, admiration, sometimes even passion – depending on the color. It is this flexibility that allows us to create compositions that have meaning. And that remain in the memory.

It is also impossible to ignore the price. A bouquet of carnations is a reasonable investment, especially when you compare its durability to other popular flowers. That is why customers who have ordered this category once, often come back. Because they see the difference - from the first look to the last day in the vase.

Most frequently chosen carnation bouquets – what do customers buy?

Although carnations have many faces, customers usually reach for compositions that combine classic with lightness. A bouquet of carnations and gypsophila is very popular - simple, but unusual. Light tones, delicate accessories and airiness create a whole that works great as a gift "for a good day".

On a par with it, clients often choose a bouquet of carnations and freesias – this is a slightly more elaborate form, ideal for name days or small anniversaries. Freesias introduce a scent that breaks the calm structure of the carnation and adds freshness to the whole.

It is also worth paying attention to the bouquet of daisies and carnations – chosen mainly in spring and summer. It is light, joyful and very "homey". Many customers say that it reminds them of compositions from old gardens. And indeed – this mixture carries a bit of nostalgia, but presented in a modern setting.

In the Florima Flowers collection, a bouquet of carnations and eustoma is also very popular – more elegant, often ordered with evening receptions or important meetings in mind. The colours here are dominated by pastels, but there is also no shortage of deeper accents, such as plum or burgundy.

You can't miss out on compositions like a bouquet of carnations and tulips - expressive, full of energy, perfect for spring, or a classic bouquet of carnations and roses, which is most often chosen for birthdays and romantic occasions. The latter works particularly well in shades of pink, peach and cream.

Each of these compositions is different, but they have one thing in common – the flexibility of carnations as flowers. They can be combined, built on them or treated as a background. This is why carnation bouquets are so well received in our shop. Customers feel that they can choose something ready-made or create something of their own – from scratch.

What to pair carnations with? Proven color and flower combinations

Carnations work great with other species – that’s a fact. But not every combination gives the same effect. That’s why, as a florist, I often recommend tried-and-tested combinations, but with room for individuality.

If you are looking for something delicate, romantic – a bouquet of carnations and eustoma will be a safe and stylish choice. Both plants have a similar texture, but differ in shape – together they create a harmonious whole. They look good in pastels, especially pink and peach.

For someone who likes classics with a touch of modernity, I recommend a bouquet of carnations and roses. This is a duo that always works – especially if we add some decorative greenery or small, seasonal accents. Roses introduce elegance, carnations – structure and volume.

In turn, a bouquet of carnations and tulips is a suggestion for those who value color and dynamics. I especially recommend it for spring - yellows, purples, reds - everything is fine. Such a bouquet will not go unnoticed.

And if the client doesn't know exactly what they want, I often suggest a bouquet of daisies and carnations or the previously mentioned bouquet of carnations and gypsophila. They are universal, aesthetic and pleasant to receive. In addition, they are always well priced.

Plants like carnations are good company – you can easily combine them with gerberas, freesias, eucalyptus or even seasonal leaves. It all depends on the effect you want to achieve – classic? A set with roses. Minimalism? Just carnations in one tone. Looking for something more romantic? Add lisianthus and a satin ribbon.

Carnation bouquets offer a huge scope for experimentation – and this is what keeps our customers coming back for more variants.
