Common Questions
Can chrysanthemum be used for cut flowers?
Yes, they make great cut flowers. Be sure to check out our guide on Cut flower Gardens.
Do chrysanthemums attract pollinators?
Yes, butterflies are attracted to chrysanthemums.
Can I plant these in containers?
Annual varieties are typically compact and suitable for containers. Keep in mind that they may not bloom until later in the season, so pair them with plants that bloom in summer or relocate them to a more visible spot later on.
Do I have to pinch chrysanthemums?
By pinching mums when they reach around 6 inches tall until early July, you can encourage bushier plants with an abundance of blooms in the fall.
Why aren’t my chrysanthemums blooming?
Chrysanthemums wait to bloom until the days start getting shorter in late summer. They require full sun to bloom and may not flower if they have been over-fertilized with a high nitrogen fertilizer.
Why didn’t my painted daisies bloom?
Painted daisies bloom the second year after sowing the seed.
