Purple First Light is a captivating chrysanthemum that embodies a soft lavender glow, reminiscent of a gentle dawn. Its fully double blooms have a pincushion-style center surrounded by neatly radiating outer petals that create a tidy yet lush form. The coloring transitions from a rich lilac at the tips to a paler lavender closer to the middle, giving the flower a dynamic and elegant appeal. This variety often blooms in clusters on upright stems, making it a fantastic candidate for both garden displays and cut flower arrangements. Its delicate appearance belies a hardy constitution, and it thrives well into the cooler months of fall.
