Chrysanthemum

Hi Cinders! No wonder you couldn't resist!
You'd love it here this month...the French all buy chrysanthemums for All Saints Day. The choice is breath-taking...

I love them Karen, and I certainly would love to see them all out there, but there are a lot here as well at this time. They are good value too, as they last so long.

I agree, Cinders, and there are so many different flowers and colours. But you won't find them in any French home. They are associated with the dead, here, and are all destined for the cemeteries. Such a shame really.

Hi Cinders.. these are so pretty :o)

Thanks TT. I so agree. As usual when you buy them like this, it is several stems around the pot, but I shall definitely try to keep these. There may be a piece that I can root if these don't survive.

Yes, let's hope you can get pieces rooted. :o)

Thank you. I thought so too.

They're almost the same as my White...lovely, last ages, mine have got a bit battered now between the wind and the rain, but a lovely brightness on a dull day still...

Afraid this one has succumbed to the weather now.

:o((
