How to care for chrysanthemum
The chrysanthemum is an easy plant to grow, as it is a perennial and long-lasting flower. However, like any pot-grown plant, it needs some care. Below, check out 7 valuable tips to achieve the best results:
- Cultivation: For planting in pots, it is important to provide adequate drainage, which can be done with stones, expanded clay, or gravel.
- Watering: The chrysanthemum is a flower that likes water, but does not tolerate waterlogged soil. The tip is to perform the finger test, placing it on the soil to feel the humidity. If it is dry, you must water it.
- Fertilization: can be done every six months with phosphorus-rich NPK fertilizer. In addition, you can also use organic fertilizers for flowering plants.
- Luminosity: The chrysanthemum should be grown in direct sunlight or in half-shade, because it needs the sun to bloom. The ideal is to prefer mild periods of the day, such as morning or afternoon sun.
- Pruning: It should be done after each flowering to stimulate the emergence of new flowers. The ideal is to cut branches of up to 4 centimeters.
- Seedlings: For successful planting, select 4 centimeter branches and plant them in soil rich in organic matter.
- Planting: Finally, the best time to plant the flower is in the spring, so you can ensure that it blooms in the fall, the perfect time to produce new flowers.
