Not Your Average Carnations


I have to admit that I have been guilty of being a carnation snob--as in,
 I really don't like them--usually.  But the other day as I was looking over 
the offerings at the wholesale flower place, I saw the most amazing purple
 carnations.  I couldn't resist.  I bought them and now I have a whole new 
respect for these flowers.  Not only do they look great en masse and come 
in colors that are sometimes hard to find, but they are tough-- 
this arrangement lasted almost two weeks!
