Florist's Chrysanthemum is a herbaceous plant with
deeply lobed, dark green upright leaves. Large flower-heads can be
yellow, white, purple or red. The plant is 1-3 ft high and wide.
Florist Chrysanthemum varieties are not hardy for growing outdoors in
cold climates. Unfortunately, it is difficult to get Chrysanthemum
morifolium to rebloom, so it is treated as an annual and thrown out
after the blooming season is over.
