Variety traits

Carnation plant height

Dianthus caryophyllus L.

Carnation plant height is a key morphological indicator that determines its purpose, the need for staking, and cultivation practices.

In the reference 41 varieties crop Carnation, where this is mentioned in the description.

For Dianthus caryophyllus, this trait is measured in centimeters during the period of mass flowering. Based on height, plants are classified into dwarf varieties of up to 20–30 cm, used for containers and borders, and tall-growing forms from 40 to 100 cm, intended for professional cut flower production.

Height directly influences production technology: for cut flower varieties with long stems, the installation of trellises or supports is mandatory to prevent stem curvature. Excessive height, when lighting conditions are not met, can lead to lodging of stems under the weight of the flower, which reduces the commercial quality of the product.
