Carnation Missantic Miss Bella — 6 Starter Plants
Miss Bella is a spray carnation that produces beautifully ruffled, double blooms in shades that range from dusty rose, mauve, to light blush, often taking on gorgeous antique tones as the flowers mature. I love the vintage coloring of this carnation, and its long vase life makes it just as useful as it is beautiful.
