    Cinerarias are beautiful flowering plants with tight clusters of daisy-like flowers surrounded by large green leaves. There are many beautiful varieties to choose from including: Florist’s cineraria – colorful flower clusters including dark pink, purple and blue Starships – a popular variety that grows 12 inches (30 cm) tall, with large colorful flower heads Dwarf cineraria – grows 7 to 12 inches (20 to 30 cm) tall, with single daisy-like flowers.
