Early Flowering Cultivars

• On average, chrysanthemums grow to approximately 1-1.2m and should be staked at planting (there are various ways of doing this, depending on individual needs).
• Two weeks after planting the plants that have not already been stopped by us, these should be stopped by pinching out the main stem and grown on to develop 6 or 7 shoots.
• Disbud for large blooms.

Spray Chrysanthemum

• Ideal for garden decoration or cut flowers.
• Grow to approximately 90cm.
• Flowering August – September.
• At the time of planting, if the plants have not been stopped by us they should be stopped at planting, leaving 4 shoots.  Three weeks later, stop again, leaving a total of 8-10 shoots for flowering.
• No disbudding will be needed.

Garden Mums – Showmakers and Yoders

• These are the shorter compact cultivars that make superb pot plants ideal for the patio.
• They can also be planted in the front of borders to give a superb splash of intense colour.
• The Showmaker varieties tend to be earlier flowering followed by the Yoder varieties for excellent Autumn colour.
• These cultivars are stopped by us and then are self-branching.
