Plant Cell Rep 10:195–199 All lots in DNW auctions are automatically reserved at the bid step which reflects 80% of the lower estimate figure, unless otherwise instructed by the vendor.

The growers are also honest with each other and will tell their competitors when their flowers are not up to standard, shares Williams. Datta SK (2013) Chrysanthemum morifolium Ramat. – A unique genetic material for breeding. Sci Cult 79(7–8):307–313From Stellenbosch to Wellington, Worcester to Ceres, Pniel to Kuilsrivier: chrysanthemum growing is a pastime enjoyed in numerous Western Cape communities. This is a quintessential daisy-shape bloom that you see in many members of the Asteraceae Family. A central section of disk florets is surrounded by several rows of ray florets (generally between 1 and 7 rows). You will find this class of chrysanthemum in our Kiku Kengai, or cascade, display.
