Beautiful chrysanthemums in the photo: the secrets of caring for indoor chrysanthemums

Chrysanthemum is known to be considered a short day culture that prefers a cool location. In this regard, the chrysanthemum really likes that at the end of August, as well as in autumn, there is a significant decrease in temperature, and the day is gradually beginning to shorten. Such plants begin to bloom exactly when the day has a duration of no more than 8 hours.

If the chrysanthemums in the photo look beautiful and well-groomed, then they are being looked after properly. The temperature in the house should be no more than 18 degrees. Otherwise, the buds may dry out, the inflorescences - quickly fade, the leaves - turn yellow.

The best place to keep chrysanthemums at home is a cool and bright window.

After the flowering of the potted chrysanthemum ends, it must be cut off and put in a cool place for the wintering period at an optimal temperature of plus 3 degrees.

In early March, this plant needs to be transplanted into a new substrate.

Often, chrysanthemums in the photo have a beautiful bush. This is achieved by pruning the shoots. And the cuttings obtained after are most often rooted.

It happens that flower growers begin to feel sorry for domestic chrysanthemums, little or no pruning of this plant in an actively growing period. This results in a bare, long plant with a rather meager flowering.

In the spring, at the end of the frost, the chrysanthemum that has overwintered in the house, along with the pot, is usually taken out into the garden or on the balcony almost before the onset of the autumn cold or before the beginning of flowering.
