At the time of ordering, the plants are selected according to current availability, always choosing healthy specimens that are flowering or have buds ready to open. In multi-piece packages, the colors may be assorted.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eIs the chrysanthemum an outdoor or indoor plant?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe chrysanthemum is an outdoor plant: it flowers longer outdoors, in the sun and cool air. Indoors, with the heating on, flowering lasts much less time. It can be brought inside for a few days, for example as a decoration, and then returned outdoors.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow long does a chrysanthemum bloom last?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eGenerally 4 to 6 weeks, depending on the temperature and location. Regular watering, good light, and removing spent flowers help extend it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow often should I water a chrysanthemum?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhen potted, on average 2-3 times a week in autumn, less during rainy or cold periods. The soil should be kept slightly moist: if it dries out completely, the plant wilts quickly.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhy is my chrysanthemum wilting or developing dry leaves?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe most frequent cause is a lack of water, followed by waterlogging in the saucer or a location that is too dark and warm. Water thoroughly if the soil is dry, empty the saucer, and move it to a bright, cool location.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow can I make my chrysanthemum flower again the following year?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eAt the end of flowering, cut the stems to 10-15 cm and let the plant rest in a sheltered location during winter. In spring, repot it or plant it in the garden, and pinch the tips of the new shoots until the beginning of July: you will get a fuller plant and new autumn flowering.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eIs the chrysanthemum toxic to cats and dogs?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes, chrysanthemums are toxic to cats, dogs, and other pets if ingested, so it is advisable to keep them out of their reach.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"leggi-anche\" style=\"margin-top: 24px; padding-top: 16px; border-top: 1px solid #e5e7eb;\"\u003e\n  \u003cp style=\"font-weight: 700; font-size: 14px; color: #1f2937; margin-bottom: 8px;\"\u003eRead also on our blog:\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003cul style=\"list-style: none; padding: 0; margin: 0;\"\u003e\n    \u003cli style=\"margin-bottom: 6px;\"\u003e\u003ca href=\"\/en\/blogs\/news\/rendi-il-tuo-balcone-e-terrazzo-unoasi-verde-con-le-piante-giuste-e-vasi-di-qualita\" style=\"color: #1a56db; text-decoration: underline; font-weight: 600;\"\u003eTurn Your Balcony and Terrace into a Green Oasis with the Right Plants and Quality Pots\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"PIANTE ITALIA","offers":[{"title":"3 Pieces","offer_id":55662628438358,"sku":"5CRIS14-3","price":12.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"6 Pieces","offer_id":55662628471126,"sku":"5CRIS14-6","price":20.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0793\/6042\/6326\/files\/Crisantemo_Colori_Misti_Set_3_Piante_Fiorite.png?v=1791525501","url":"https:\/\/www.igiardinidigiulia.it\/en\/products\/crisantemo-chrysanthemum-morifolium-colori-misti-d-14-h-30-cm","provider":"i Giardini di Giulia ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
