Come see the amazing array of chrysanthemums grown by members of the Long Island Chrysanthemum Society as they compete for prizes. Members will be present to answer questions.
Chrysanthemums come in thirteen bloom types and a wide variety of colors. The flowers actually consist of masses of individual "florets." Disc florets form the center of the bloom, and ray florets extend outward from the center. In "incurves" the traditional "football" mums the ray florets predominate and completely cover the disc. "Anemones" on the other hand, have large discs and just a fringe of rays. Come to our show and see them all.
Although mums bloom in the fall, you begin with rooted cuttings in the spring, and nurture them through the hot summer months. The winter is the time to plan your garden and learn all you can about the growing process. |
