What a cool looking mum! There are so many really great looking mums but I only see the plain ones for sale. I wonder where you can find these that are so beautiful!

Great shot Mgarr! I enjoy so many of your photos!

Take any Chrysanthemum x morifolium and only allow oand ne stem to grow. Pinch off any side shoots. Staking is probably a good idea. Only allow one flower bud to grow pinching off any others and your regular flower should be much bigger.
