Spotlight on January’s Flower: The Carnation

Elegant January Carnation Arrangement by Tooka Florist

Unveiling the Beauty and Significance of Carnations in the Heart of Winter

January, a month often associated with new beginnings and fresh starts, is also a time to celebrate the beauty and versatility of the carnation, January’s birth flower. At Tooka Florist, nestled in the vibrant North Vancouver, we take pride in showcasing the elegance and diversity of carnations in our floral arrangements.

The Symbolism of Carnations

Carnations, known for their rich texture and a wide spectrum of colors, carry deep symbolism. Each hue tells a unique story: pink carnations express gratitude, white symbolizes pure love and good luck, while red carnations are a token of admiration. This versatility makes them a perfect choice for various occasions – from birthdays to sympathy events.

Carnations in History and Culture

The carnation's history is as rich as its colors. Said to have been used in Greek ceremonial crowns, the flower has been a part of human culture for centuries. In modern times, carnations have gained popularity for their lasting freshness and have become a symbol of pride and beauty across different cultures.

Caring for Carnations

Carnations are not only beautiful but also resilient. They prefer a cool environment and can last up to two weeks with proper care. This makes them an ideal choice for vase arrangements and basket arrangements, adding a touch of elegance to your home or office.
