Bright pink, fresh green and full of character. Meet Wicked, one of the newest additions to Zentoo's chrysanthemum collection. With its striking colour combination and playful appearance, this Santini brings a fresh perspective to floral design. At OZ-Hami, we're always excited to introduce distinctive new varieties to the international flower market. 


Small flower, big personality.


Round the Clock Week 30 New Flowers on the ClocksWicked proves that a small flower can make a big impression. This new Santini chrysanthemum features vibrant pink pompon-shaped blooms with a contrasting fresh green centre. With a flower diameter of approximately 3 centimetres, Wicked combines a compact flower shape with an eye-catching colour combination.  

The contrast between its bright pink petals and green centre gives this variety a distinctive appearance, making it an interesting choice for florists looking to add colour, texture and personality to their arrangements. 

And there's a personal story behind the name: Wicked was named after the daughter of its grower, giving this new variety an extra special touch. 


Innovation at Zentoo.

Behind Wicked is Zentoo, a Dutch collective of chrysanthemum growers known for its diverse assortment and continuous development of new varieties. By combining cultivation expertise, innovation and a shared passion for chrysanthemums, Zentoo regularly introduces new varieties that respond to changing preferences in the international flower market. Wicked is one of the newcomers featured in Zentoo's autumn-winter 2026 collection. Its playful appearance demonstrates how innovation in flower breeding and cultivation continues to expand the creative possibilities of chrysanthemums. 

 

A colourful addition to autumn floral designs. 

While autumn floral arrangements are often associated with warm oranges, burgundy and earthy tones, Wicked offers an exciting alternative. Its vibrant pink petals bring a fresh contrast to traditional autumn colour palettes, while the green centre connects beautifully with natural foliage and seasonal textures. 

For professional florists and floral designers, Wicked offers several creative possibilities: 


Mixed bouquets:

Add bright colour accents and playful texture alongside other seasonal flowers. 


Modern floral arrangements:

Combine Wicked with complementary pink, green or contrasting varieties for a contemporary look. 


Event and retail floristry:

Use its distinctive colour combination to create arrangements that stand out. 


Autumn designs:

Introduce unexpected colour contrasts into traditional seasonal compositions. 

Its compact pompon-shaped flowers make Wicked particularly interesting for detailed floral work and arrangements that benefit from smaller, colourful accents. 


How to care for Santini chrysanthemums. 


Like other cut chrysanthemums, Wicked benefits from proper handling and care throughout the supply chain. To maintain flower quality, we recommend using clean buckets and fresh water with suitable cut flower food. Recut the stems before placing them in water and remove any leaves that would sit below the waterline. Store chrysanthemums in appropriate cool conditions, away from direct sunlight and unnecessary heat. Regularly checking water quality and keeping flowers properly hydrated helps maintain their appearance. 

For wholesalers and florists, careful handling from delivery to final arrangement is essential to getting the most out of every stem.
