EDITORS COMMENTS
This enchanting close-up image showcases the exquisite beauty of Dianthus Caryophyllus, commonly known as the Carnation or Clove Pink. With its cream-coloured petals delicately edged in bright pink, this flower is a beloved member of the Caryophyllaceae family. The Carnation's history is steeped in tradition and symbolism. Dating back to ancient Greece and Rome, these flowers were initially dedicated to the gods of love and fertility. Over centuries, they have been cultivated for their captivating fragrance and vibrant colours, which have made them a popular choice for gardens and bouquets. The name 'Carnation' is derived from the Latin word 'coronation,' reflecting their historical use as decorative head garlands and crowns. In the late 19th and early 20th centuries, the Carnation became a symbol of the Belle Époque era, with its elegant and refined appearance gracing numerous paintings, poems, and songs. This particular Carnation, named Jazz, showcases the perfect balance between cream and pink hues, creating a visually stunning contrast. The delicate petals, with their bright pink edging, unfurl to reveal a captivating floral masterpiece. The intricate details of the flower's structure are on full display in this photograph, inviting us to appreciate the natural beauty and intricacy of the plant world.
