Chrysanthemum

Chrysanthemums are the iconic symbol of Mothers Day. Showy long-lasting flowers on strong stems provide splashes of colour in late Summer and Autumn. Easy to grow, relatively pest and disease free.

Chrysanthemums grow best in a cool to mild climate but will grow and flower well into the milder subtropics. Suitable in shrubberies, borders pots and containers.  Chrysanthemums prefer full sun and well-draining soil.
