Plant information

General

The Dendranthema indicum offers double the fun. Chrysanthemums that are well taken care of will bring colour to your life, both indoors and outdoors. The chrysanthemum is a plant with a deeper meaning. If you are giving it as a present, you are wishing its recipient a long, happy and healthy life. And in Japan, for example, the chrysanthemum is known as a holy flower. In any case, this annual guarantees a vast sea of flowers.

Care

Caring for the Indian chrysanthemum is easy. The plant loves moist soil, therefore water it regularly. If the plant is located in the sun, it is advisable to water it daily.

Placing

Do you want to show off your Indian chrysanthemum in your garden or on your patio? No problem. The plant feels very comfortable outside. However, bring the plant indoors to prevent damage from nightly frost. If kept indoors, the plant will need natural light, but be careful with too much direct sunlight.

Propogation

When purchasing chrysanthemums, look for open buttons and regularly remove dead flowers to enjoy these plants as long as possible. Take good care of your chrysanthemum; this hardy plant will flower again next year. Propagate the plant in early spring with cuttings from the existing plant.
