Autumn is the season to add plenty of colour to your garden and patio. And for that, you can’t ignore the colourful multiflora garden chrysanthemum, of course. Two tips for a contemporary presentation of this autumn classic. And an important care tip!
Summer bloomers out, garden chrysanthemums in
With summer coming to an end, the pots and containers in the outdoor space could use some (extra) colour. Summer bloomers out, garden chrysanthemums in! These autumn beauties will quickly add lots of colour to your garden, patio and balcony. Their extensive colour palette encourages you to create striking combinations – think typical autumn colours such as red, orange and purple with a hint of pink as an accent colour. Or create an exciting contrast by placing, for example, a purple garden chrysanthemum next to a yellow one. This way, you can create a surprisingly different look with this autumn classic!
A collection!
One autumn chrysanthemum is lovely, but a collection suits the time of year even better. To create a true autumn collection, you can opt for garden chrysanthemums in different sizes. If you limit yourself to one colour such as crisp white, the ensemble will look very chic. On the other hand, if you combine different colours and sizes, it will be an exuberant party of colours that will make you smile. And that is very welcome now that the days are getting shorter.
Water regularly
A garden chrysanthemum is an easy plant that has no special care requirements, except for one: the generous, spherical shape means rainwater cannot reach the soil very well. So water the garden chrysanthemum regularly (make sure the root ball does not dry out) and give some plant food once every two weeks. Then this colourful garden plant can continue flowering well into autumn!
