The same general care guidelines described here apply to carnations, including their sensitivity to ethylene, a harmless (harmless to humans and animals), naturally produced gas,
which can be released by fruits, vegetables, and decaying floral materials. Keep arranged carnations free of ethylene producing materials for best results.
When you re-cut the stems, cut them just above one of the nodes that run up the flower's stalk. This will allow the stem to more easily draw the water it needs. When properly cared for carnations can last 7-14 days, depending on variety.
