Guide to Carnation Growers

Partnering with the right carnation grower to best benefit your floral business


Carnations are one of the most popular flowers in the US, often considered a more cost-effective version of the rose. They are requested for weddings, proms and other events as well as general flower giving, thanks to their wide variety of available colors, their highly fragrant nature and their longevity of beauty. Carnation growers offer carnation seed packets, carnation flowers and wholesale carnations, giving you a range of carnation options for your floral business.

Choose from miniature carnations or full-sized blooms in multiple colors. To find the best carnation growers and purchase the carnation varieties most popular with your customers, you should:

1. Survey your customers about the sizes and colors of carnation they prefer to help you determine which ones to offer in your floral shop.

2. Purchase carnations or carnation seed from a reputable carnation grower that offers quick service and quality guarantees.

3. Ask for wholesale carnation flowers, shipping discounts and other deals to save money and in turn pass the savings on to your customers.

Action Steps

The best contacts and resources to help you get it done

Decide on the breeds and colors of carnation to offer Before looking for a carnation grower, you should narrow down the varieties of carnations you want to offer. If you want to leave your options open, find a carnation grower with many varieties and a quick shipping policy to get you custom orders fast. If you have the room or a greenhouse, consider ordering carnation seeds and growing them yourself.

I recommend:  Check out the Society of American Florists Annual Convention to find out the latest trends in carnations, including colors, breeds, arrangements and meet carnation growers. Visit the Flower Expert for the most popular varieties of carnations and the meanings of the different colors.

Purchase carnations or carnation seeds from a reputable carnation grower When looking for a carnation supplier, find one with a large variety of carnations that are fresh cut. You want a grower who has been in the business awhile and can offer solid references. If you are looking for custom carnations, find a company offering genetically modified carnations for decorative purposes only, not edible.

I recommend:  Emerald Farms, Inc. offers some of the most beautiful carnation varieties and colors available. They not only ship them directly to you quickly, they also offer advanced standing orders for the next year's available carnations. Florigene Pty Ltd. offers specially engineered carnations that can be customized to meet your customers’ needs.

Ask for wholesale carnation flowers, shipping discounts and other deals to save money Don't be afraid to ask for discounts or purchase through a wholesale carnation grower. You should be entitled to discounts if the carnations are not fresh cut, if it's the end of the season, if you are purchasing a large quantity or if you offer to pick up the carnations instead of have them delivered.

I recommend:  Agrotropical offers a large variety of wholesale carnations in every style and color. You can ensure they are fresh because they are shipped directly from the farm to your business. Roses & Beyond offer discounts on bulk purchases, which is a perfect way to save money on large wedding and event orders.

Tips & Tactics

Helpful advice for making the most of this Guide
  • Carnations are a hardy flower, perfect for transport and storing. If you have the space, order extras to feature in your coolers for 'grab-and-go' customers who are in a hurry or for those quick, last minute arrangements. The more colorful your coolers are with these fragrant and happy flowers, the better for you and your business.
