Chrysanthemum (Chrysanthemum Coccineum Robinson's Mix) - Chrysantheum Coccineum flower seed, also known as Painted Daisy, produces 2 - 3 inch daisy-like flowers in red, pink, lilac and white with a yellow center in late spring to early summer. The foliage has divided leaves with a strong scent. Chrysanthemum Coccineum or Pyrethrum prefers a fertile, well-drained soil and full sun in the North or partial shade in the South. Robinson's Mix attracts bees, butterflies and birds to the garden, and makes a great cut flower as well.
Sow Robinson's Mix flower seeds indoors 4 - 6 weeks before last frost, or direct sow the flower seed outside into prepared beds after frost season has passed. Either method of sowing the flower seeds will produce stunning beauty for the garden!
