How big are the flowers in comparison to a ping or better yet something more definitive such a Canadian penny?

The bud looks to be about 3mm in dia.

The flowers are small, but it's very nice when there are many of them together.
It's hard to stop them from blooming once they have settled and happy!

Are they difficult to grow? Yours are so lovely! Those are really pretty flowers.
