How to grow golden chrysanthemum

Sunlight needs

Golden chrysanthemum likes plenty of sunlight, whether in summer or winter. If there is not enough sunlight for a long time, the plant will become very sparse, the flowers will no longer be bright, and the fragrance of the flowers will become weaker and weaker. If you transplant the plant indoors in winter, place it where it can be exposed to sunlight, and turn the flowerpot frequently so that every side of the plant can enjoy the sunlight, which will allow the plant to grow more evenly.

Fertilizer requirements

During the growing period, fertilizer can be applied every 2 to 3 months, and its demand for fertilizer is not too high. But when fertilizing, avoid getting fertilizer water on the leaves and flowers.

Water requirements

During its golden period of growth, it should be given sufficient water, but no water should be stagnate. At the same time, the soil should not be kept too moist for a long time.

Disease prevention and control

The main disease is brown rot. Because the leaves at the bottom of the plant are close to the soil, they are easily contaminated by water when watering or the leaves are close to the soil for a long time, which makes it easy for some diseases to occur. In severe cases, the whole plant can die. However, the peak period of this disease is from March to April every year. In mild cases, the diseased part can be cut off. In more severe cases, it can be treated by spraying with drugs. If the condition is too serious, the pot and soil must be changed and replanted. Therefore, during daily cultivation, be sure not to let the leaves, flowers, etc. of the plants get wet.
