Protecting Chrysanthemums

[ad#promo-content-atf-200-left]

Question: What is the best way to protect chrysanthemums for the winter?

Answer: There is no one perfect way, for each winter the weather is different. It is safest to lift a clump or two of each variety and winter them over in a cold-frame. In spring, divisions or cuttings can be made. Another good way to protect chrysanthemums is to lift the clump with a ball of soil, set it on top of the ground and then cover the entire clump with soil, just as roses are hilled in.
