Carnations are regarded as The Flowers of God and the association harks back to Dianthus, their scientific name which is the contribution of Theophrastus, the Greek botanist. The name is split into the Greek words dios (Zeus) and anthos (flower). Carnations are also symbolic with love and are popular for their lovely fragrance. They make for the perfect gifting options for wedding anniversaries and the like. Carnation blooms also last long even after being cut and they are native Eurasian flowers.
