Total:

Chrysanthemum (Chrysanthemum morifolium), the beloved Guldaudi or Shevanti, is a cool-season flowering favourite across India. It produces masses of rounded, daisy-like or pompon blooms in yellow, white, bronze, pink, purple and red atop bushy, aromatic lobed foliage. Flowering mainly in autumn and winter as days shorten, it is grown in pots, beds and as cut flowers, and is central to festivals, garlands and pooja offerings. With bright light, cool temperatures and pinching for bushiness, it gives a spectacular, long-lasting display. Easy and rewarding, it is a staple of Indian winter gardens and balcony container collections.

Growing tips

In India plant by late monsoon for autumn-winter bloom; give bright light, cool temperatures and pinch the growing tips two or three times early on for a bushy, flower-laden plant.

Chrysanthemum Care

Chrysanthemum morifolium is easy to keep happy with bright light and 4-6 hours of direct sun each day, which encourages the heaviest flowering. Water when the top inch of soil feels dry, keeping the mix moist but never waterlogged, and feed with a balanced liquid fertiliser every two weeks during the growing and budding season. Pinch back young shoots to build a bushier plant with more blooms, and remove spent flowers regularly to extend the display.

Chrysanthemum Varieties & Types

This is a mixed chrysanthemum, so you get a spread of colours across the batch rather than a single shade, ideal for a lively, varied display. Chrysanthemum morifolium comes in daisy, pompon, spider and decorative flower forms, in tones spanning white, yellow, bronze, pink, red and purple. Growing several plants together gives a full, multi-coloured effect on a balcony, terrace or in a border.

Where to place Chrysanthemum

Place your chrysanthemum where it gets plenty of morning sun and good airflow, such as a sunny balcony, windowsill, terrace edge or the front of a garden bed. Good ventilation helps keep the foliage dry and reduces the risk of fungal spots. Grown in pots, it moves easily to follow the light or to take centre stage when in full flower.

Frequently asked questions

How often should I water Chrysanthemum?
Keep the soil evenly moist, watering when the top layer starts to dry. Avoid wetting the flowers and foliage to prevent mildew.
How much sunlight does it need?
It needs bright light or full sun for about 5-6 hours daily, but flowering is triggered by shortening day length in autumn.
Is Chrysanthemum safe for pets?
It is mildly toxic to cats and dogs and can cause vomiting or skin irritation, so keep pets from chewing it.
How do I repot it?
Repot or divide clumps yearly after flowering, using rich, well-drained soil and a fresh pot for vigorous spring growth.
How do I propagate it?
Propagate from soft tip cuttings in spring or by dividing established clumps after the flowering season.
Why won't my mum flower?
Chrysanthemums are short-day plants; stray night light, too much heat or late pinching can delay or prevent autumn-winter blooms.
When does it bloom?
It flowers mainly in autumn and winter as days shorten, which in most of India means roughly October through January.
Can I grow it indoors?
It can flower indoors near a bright window for a season, but it performs best outdoors or on a sunny balcony.
How do I keep it bushy?
Pinch out the growing tips two or three times in early growth to encourage branching and many more flower buds.
What fertilizer should I use?
Feed every 1-2 weeks with a balanced feed during growth, then switch to a phosphorus-rich feed as buds form for better blooms.
