Happy Valentine’s Day! A rich red carnation symbolizes deep love and affection, while a pale red carnation represents admiration and the words, “my heart aches for you”. It is said that the deep red petals of the red carnation represent a beating heart that is filled with love too! Other than that, red carnations are also a symbol of passion and distinction.
@helenhall thank you! Yes, I was. Years ago, I told my husband (then boyfriend) to please not do roses because they are so expensive. He’s always given me either tulips or carnations. ☺️
