Thanks. There are so many beautiful Argyranthemums out now. Some are just gorgeous. Do either of you know who sells the real fancy Chrysanthemums? I can only find them for sale in England.

Thanks Kin and Pirl. Odd they are no where to be found in the US. In England they seem to be all over. Maybe here you have to join a Chrysanthemum club to find them.
