So, you think you know everything about carnations?
Fun Facts You May Not Know!
- Carnations are the official birth month flower for January.
- In China, carnations are the most popular flowers to use for weddings.
- They're also the official 1st wedding anniversary flower (note that one down if you've tied the knot recently!)
- During Victorian times carnations were used to send secret, coded messages or to answer a secret question. Sending a solid colored carnation meant the answer to the question was 'yes' and sending a yellow carnation meant the answer was 'no'.
- Oxford University students have a long-standing tradition of wearing carnations to their exams. They wear white for the first exam for luck, then pink for the rest of the exams until the final one, which they wear red for.
