Can chrysanthemums only live for one year? How many times do chrysanthemums bloom in a year

1. Can I only live for one year?

Chrysanthemum is a perennial plant with roots, so it lives for more than one year. Many people think that it only lives for one year. This is because in winter, the part above the ground will dry up and look like it is dead. In fact, the chrysanthemum is not dead yet, and the roots underneath are still alive. When the temperature rises in the spring of the following year, it will sprout and grow again. In fact, chrysanthemum has a very long lifespan and is a relatively long-lived flower. Generally, it is normal for it to survive for 3-5 years when cared for at home. As long as you pay attention to the maintenance methods and provide a suitable growing environment, it can live for more than ten years. It is said that some can live to about eighty years.

2. How many times does it bloom in a year?

Chrysanthemums can only bloom once a year, and the natural flowering period is around September to November each year. Because of different varieties, the flowering time is also different. Some varieties bloom earlier, around May, and some bloom later, in December, so the specific flowering period is not fixed. Although chrysanthemums only bloom once a year, the flowering period can be controlled through artificial technology. Shortening the light can promote the formation of flower buds, thereby achieving early flowering, and extending the light can inhibit the flower buds and delay the flowering period.
