Chrysanthemum | Pretty In Pink Gift Cards Also known as a StokesPretty in Pink is a small flowered Chrysanthemum that actually opens looking as if it will be a soft peach colour but as it ages it takes on its pretty pale pink shades. Flowers are about 5cm in diameter. These plants are reasonably tall and we grow them amongst other plants in the garden so that they can lean up against them with their pretty flowers popping through. Chrysanthemums are definitely back in fashion and this one is no exception!
