Carnation is Common Name and Dianthus Botanical name. This may be D. caryophyllus

I asked you about Carnation and Dianthus because when I got these plants from the local nursery one was labelled Carnation and the other Dianthus and so the confusion. Probably they were trying to teach me both the common and the Botanical name ha ha I am attaching the picture of both.


It should be Dianthus chinensis L.  as per images herein.

Dianthus caryophyllus


Dianthus caryophyllus, sweet william?, carnation, blooming these days


Leaves do look like sweet William (Dianthus barbatus) and not carnation (Dianthus caryophyllus), but perhaps it is early flowering, the flowers should form a terminal head in Sweat William.


… you are right, D. chinensis, as flowers are few, D. barbatus has numerous flowers in terminal head
