The Chrysothemis promises to be huge-- I am going to try one or two outdoors this summer-- flowers are borne in stiff calyx that persists once the bloom is spent. The plants are loaded-- hopefully I'll get a bunch open at the same time. the foilage is gorgeous-- so shiny it looks like wax-- I also have the C. pulchella from seed--it blooms red-- I think--but no blooms yet. You can see that the foilage on this one is a lot darker..
