Gardening 

Chrysanthemums look stunning in your fall garden, but when should they be planted? When we plant the flower in the fall it can survive the winter, however it’s chances of survival less. So it’s recommended to plant them in the Spring. This way you’ll have a better chance to provide the proper care (pinching and mulching). Once planted they will usually last about 3 consecutive years.

When in fact the flower comes in many different colours and sizes. That being said, it can be hard to decide what one to choose and what would work best in your home or garden. But that’s where we come in, we have a large selection of daisy arrangements for you to choose from.
