Variety traits
Dianthus L.
A trait characterizing the ability of carnation flower stalks to maintain an upright position during the growing and flowering period. It directly affects the commercial appearance of the product and the efficiency of harvesting.
In the reference 26 varieties crop Carnation, where this is mentioned in the description.
Resistance to lodging in carnation is assessed primarily visually during field observations and is recorded in cultivar descriptions as a qualitative trait. This indicator is influenced by the biological characteristics of the cultivar, including genetically determined stalk strength and plant compactness.
External risk factors include high planting density, which promotes stem elongation due to lack of light, and excessive nitrogen nutrition. Tall cultivars, such as Dianthus caryophyllus var. schabaud or Dianthus barbatus, are most susceptible to bending or stem breakage under the influence of wind and precipitation, which necessitates the mandatory installation of supports or netting. Modern breeding, particularly in the pot plant segment, is aimed at developing forms that do not require additional support means.
