Miniature Ball · 2–3"PinkTed & Margaret Kennedy (2015)United States
Pink rounds open in a deep magenta that fades toward white at the outer petals, creating a two-tone effect that shifts with the light. No two blooms land quite the same way, giving a planting natural variety without mixing cultivars. Kennedy bred it to cut well, and the stems back that up with reach and strength that hold up through market day. It was bred in United States by Ted & Margaret Kennedy in 2015.

Growing Hollyhill Pixie
Pinch once plants reach four sets of leaves to push branching and boost stem count through the season. Stake early since the plants push toward four feet and can lean when heavy with blooms. Cut stems as soon as blooms reach three-quarters open to get the longest run in a bucket. Water at the base and keep foliage dry to reduce mildew risk in late summer.
- Spacing
- Space roughly 2–3 ft apart
- Staking
- Stake early — stems carry heavy blooms and lean in wind
