Chrysanthemum morifolium seed

LATIN NAME: CHRYSANTHEMUM MORIFOLIUM

COMMON NAME: Florists’ Chrysanthemum

The florists’ chrysanthemum crowns the sturdy, upright perennial with the aromatic, deeply lobed, grey-green leaves and the large, many-petalled flower heads that open through the late summer and the autumn in the shades of the gold, the bronze, the white and the pink, the heads crowning the stems, the small achenes following. The plant grows into the bold, leafy clump, and it likes the sun, and the rich, moist, well-drained soil.

Scientific Research & Plant Biotechnology

The long ceremonial and garden history of the chrysanthemum gives it a recognised place in the research on the autumn-flowering perennials of the daisy family, and the morifolium species appears in the studies of the cool-season bloom and the flower pigments. The work looks at the way the heads crown the stems into the autumn, the traditional teas, and the seed biology. The horticulturists value the long-lasting flowers, and the growers of the late-flowering garden perennials keep the species in their catalogues.

Ecological & Economic Value & Wide Applications

In the autumn border, the florists’ chrysanthemum crowns the autumn garden with the golden heads. The flowers fill the vases through the cool season, the petals have served the teas and the preparations for the ages, and the plant makes the bold, generous clump. It grows well in the rich, moist, well-drained, sunny ground. Late-blooming, golden and vase-ready.

To grow the Florists’ Chrysanthemum from seed, press the seeds into the surface of the moist, gritty mix, then keep them lightly covered, keep the tray moist and bright, and the seedlings emerge within a week or two.

Keep the tray moist and bright, and pot the seedlings on as they grow. The crowned blooms come within the season. Set the young plants in the rich, sunny ground, and the crowned blooms will colour through the autumn.
