Dianthus plant height
Dianthus caryophyllus L.
The height of Dianthus (Dianthus caryophyllus L.) is a key morphological trait that determines its suitability for cut flowers, pot culture, or landscaping, and is measured at the full flowering stage.
In the reference 135 varieties crop Carnation, where this is mentioned in the description.
For pot and garden types, height is measured from the soil level to the top of the plant including the flowers, whereas for cut flower types, it is measured only as the stem length to the top, excluding the flower. Depending on the cultivar type, values range from 15–30 cm for dwarf forms to 50–100 cm and above for cut flower varieties.
This trait determines cultivation technology: tall varieties require the installation of support nets to prevent stem curvature, and plant height directly influences the choice of planting pattern. Agronomic factors, such as light intensity and nitrogen nutrition levels, allow for the management of the plant habit, preventing undesirable stretching or underdevelopment of the flower stalks.
