There's a reason carnations have remained a favourite for generations. Carnation 'Festival Mix' F1 captures all their timeless charm in a compact plant that's perfect for today's gardens. Richly coloured, sweetly scented flowers appear in abundance, filling beds, borders and containers with colour and fragrance across two seasons.

 

Its naturally bushy habit creates neat, long-lasting displays that look equally at home in contemporary planting schemes or traditional cottage gardens. Whether planted in groups for maximum impact or combined with pansies, violas and wallflowers, Festival Mix brings another layer of colour, texture and perfume to seasonal displays.

 

Hardy, reliable and easy to grow, these compact plants thrive in fertile, well-drained soil in a sunny position. Regular deadheading encourages fresh flowers, helping displays stay colourful throughout the flowering season.

How To Grow

Garden Ready Plants:
If you can't plant your Garden Ready Plants immediately, keep them well watered until you're ready. They can be stood in a shallow tray of water for a short time to prevent them drying out. Garden Ready Plants are large and well established, so they can be planted straight into their final position in beds, borders, containers or hanging baskets.

Guide To Plant Sizes

Garden Ready Plants:
Supplied in trays of 12, Garden Ready Plants are our largest plug plants and the perfect choice if you want quicker results. Carefully grown on before dispatch, they're ready to plant straight into beds, borders, containers or hanging baskets, where they'll establish quickly and provide a colourful display.
