Woolley Pride

October classified medium, pink reflexed. (14b P)

Root: December/early January

Blooms per plant: 2 for exhibition.

Height: 1.6 metres appx

Protection: overhead and bloom bags (optional).

A very heavy grower with exceptionally large leaves. After securing buds there is a tendency for the neck to stretch away from the top leaves. Blooms are a solid pink made up of broad flat petals that require only the minimum of dressing. This cultivar may 'blow it's top' if large amounts of water are given late in the day during June. A cultivar that needs special attention but the the blooms certainly make it worthwhile. U.K. Regional Stopping guide The dates we choose for stopping our chrysanths can never be guaranteed to produce flowers on a specific date for a specific show, weather conditions and other factors (such as garden aspect, location, cultural routine etc) will all play a part in influencing speed of plant development following the stop. The following information relates to stopping dates for producing blooms for Shows during the first half of September and are offered as a start point for new growers. Adjustments should be made for later or earlier shows.
