You can't tell from the picture but this is three times the size of my others. It also came out pink when most of the others are purple. It is the only one with all the frilly stuff in the center. Last year I got one with fringes on the petals. Each year I get one that surprises me. Fun stuff.

Really pretty Muddy. It looks almost as though it's made out of tissue paper.
