This photo of the lovely orange carnations is from a few years ago, but I’d like to share it on the last day of the orange week in Kim’s Color Crazy Challenge.
I used the blooming spring trees as a background, and I think it turned out cutely. Do you have a favorite color? Do you participate in Kim’s challenge?

However, Autumn is here but hardly a drop of rain for Auckland, NZ.
I hope you have a wonderful and peaceful autumn!
Is that a specific type of carnation? I have never seen one like that and I would like to order some from a friend.
I think they are miniature carnations, but I am not sure.
Beautiful picture. An excellent choice of flower.
Thank you so much for your kind words!
