STRIPED CHRYSANTHEMUM ON THE BALCONY

Chrysanthemum is a pretty flower that I really love it.
Both of the shape and color are so interesting.
I only collect a few of this plant on my little garden.
The colorful flower cheers my grey balcony.


Just beautiful, although some of my collection finally just grow as annual.


Actually, with a good treatment, this plant will grow well as perennial.
Pruning, watering, good drainage and fertilizing make these plants grow and flowering almost all year round. 


Reader, do you grow Chrysanthemum on your garden?

    I'm surprised that your climate isn't too hot for chrysanthemums

    It is nice that you can grow chrysanthemums. They are such a pretty flower and here they are grown as annuals or perennials.

      Thanks Lee. On your climate, chrysanthemum grows much better.

    I have a few Chysanthemums, but they bloom here in the fall. I'm surprised you can grow them as perennials. I thought they needed a cold season to thrive and survive. Your cultivar is beautiful--with the three colors in a ring pattern. Lovely.

      Yes, they need special environment to grow optimally. Here, they will grow well on the highland with cool weather all year round.

    Cantiknya Endah..saya sampai sekarang masih tercari-cari chrysunthemum kampung. Jenis lasak dan tahan cuaca. Semasa saya kecil bunga ini antara yang sangat popular dan sering ditanam. Dalam bahasa melayunya di panggil bunga kekwa.

      nama yang cantik, Kak Mala. Ya, saya pun tanam varietas lokal yang tahan cuaca panas tanpa perawatan khusus, namun kurang rajin berbunga.

    I love this selection you have here! I do so love them and often have them in containers during the fall but I have started planting them in the ground and they come up beautifully and add so much color to my garden during the cold months. Happy gardening friend! Nicole xo

      Thank you, Nicole. I have never known that chrysanthemum is blooming during the fall, I have thought that it blooms during the summer.

    Chryzantemy w Polsce też sa uprawiane, niestety one nie zimują w ogrodzie ponieważ mamy zimny klimat. Ja w swoim ogrodzie niestety nie mam tych pięknych kwiatów.
    Pozdrawiam
