bellina 'Chin Yo'

My favorite bellina at the moment. Vigorous grower and the flower has great form and color. Downside is that the size of the flower is nothing special. Upside outweighs the downside..

I think that this flower may have award potential. If I can get the flowers arranged properly on the next blooming, I may take it for judging.
