Hello

I took a couple of pics of this rather exquisite little orange flower at
Waterperry Gardens near Oxford yesterday:

My mum thinks it's a Chrysathemum, but does it have a particular name or

there too many chrysanthemums to bother giving individual names to?

Thanks

That's a dahlia

Ahhh, excellent. Found them now - more specifically called Ball Dahlias:
