Our Chrysanthemum Plug Plants are supplied in a 3cm x 5cm coir and peat plug.
When you receive your plugs, either pot them up or plant them out into their permanent positions. Water as needed, but take care not to overwater. For the best results, protect young plants from snails and slugs. |
Chrysanthemum El Tora is a striking variety known for its bold colouration and impressive bloom form. It is suited to container growing or near the front of the border in the garden. Whilst the stems are a little short for a traditional bouquet their shorter stems still hold up well in a small vase. The longest I've harvested is 45cm
