The second is indeed a pink. To me pinks are generally single and carnations have multiple petals, but the species are so intermingled that only the experts can say which is which. |

South Devon The second pic doesnt show if the flowers are all on one stem or are several flower stems together. if one stem then it's a Sweet William. David Hill |
