Chrysanthemum tetravis - annual beauty
Chrysanthemums adorn the gardens of many, they liven up the greenery of the garden with bright beautiful spots from mid-summer to late autumn, regardless of the cold snap and winds, in which many flowers no longer bloom.
In order for the garden to amaze with a riot of colors, you should choose chrysanthemums so that they bloom with flowers of different color shades, moreover, there are annual and perennial chrysanthemums. What to plant in the garden depends on the wishes of the owner of the site, garden and his ability to buy, care for, sow, etc.
Many people prefer to sow chrysanthemums, they love to watch the beauties of autumn grow from a small sprout, and it is cheaper to buy seeds than to buy a ready-made bush later, but more effort and time will be spent to get a bush.
Annual chrysanthemum tetravis - has light greens, dark brown stems and flowers of golden and white shades, grows into a compact bush, not higher than 50 centimeters in height (but there are bushes and taller), but distinguished by branching, not demanding, cold-resistant, but blooms better there where there is a lot of sun.
Chrysanthemum tetravays sowing, it is better to sow it in May directly into the ground, to a depth of no more than two centimeters, into not too wet, but light soil, in which there is already either humus or compost, seedlings will appear by the tenth day and are able to withstand frosts. Leave at least forty centimeters between each plant.
The chrysanthemum is developing rapidly and will delight you with white flower caps already in early July. You can try to collect seeds that are abundantly tied, then when the seed pod turns brown, if the seeds are not collected, then the chrysanthemum will sow itself the next year.
The chrysanthemum is not whimsical, it is easy to care for it, and so that the branches have a lot of tops, you need to pinch. In order for the flowering to last longer, it is better to remove the faded flowers during the time.
I can't even imagine our house without chrysanthemums - I especially love the dark red ones, they are so special!
The only minus of chrysanthemums is that it is necessary to plant every year. The flowers are really wonderful, we also constantly plant them along the site.
