The stem of carnation is relatively upright, with few branches, long and narrow leaves, and most of them are linear lanceolate. The flowers are solitary and fragrant at the end of the branch. Most of them are pink, purple and white. The soil with good ability of water and fertilizer conservation shall be used for maintenance, and the light shall be maintained for a long time every day. Watering is mainly concentrated in the growth period and the flowering period, usually less watering. Fertilize once a week, with cake or compound fertilizer.

I. morphological characteristics

1. Stem: the stem of carnation is relatively upright, and the base will be lignified, and the branches on it are relatively sparse.

2. Leaves: the length of carnation leaves is between 4 and 14 cm, the width is 2 to 4 cm, and the shape is mostly linear lanceolate.

3. Flowers: carnations usually bloom from May to August. The flowers are usually solitary on the branch end, with a certain aroma. The petals are obovate, with pink, purplish red and white colors.

II. Maintenance methods

1. Soil: carnation is suitable for growing in loose and permeable soil. If it has the ability of keeping fertilizer and water, it will be better. Too much soil viscosity is not conducive to its development.

2. Illumination: carnations need to be illuminated for a long time. The longer the light lasts, the more it will bloom, and it will not be exposed to the sun.

3. Watering: Carnation should not be watered too much. Generally, it can be watered a little more in the peak growing season and summer, and it can also be watered in the flowering period. Keep the soil moist, but not too wet.

4. Fertilization: when planting carnation, the base fertilizer should be applied in the basin soil, and the cake fertilizer or compound fertilizer should be applied once a week in the growth period, so as to ensure the growth of the plant as soon as possible.
