What shall you do with your carnations over winter?

To care for carnations over winter, it's best to bring potted plants indoors if you live in a colder climate, placing them in a bright location with moderate temperatures. If they're in the garden, mulch around the base to insulate the roots and protect them from frost. Water them sparingly, as they need less moisture during the dormant winter months. Pruning any dead or wilted flowers can also help promote healthy growth when spring arrives.
