Key Tips for Success: Chrysanthemum blooms are available in several flower shapes including single, decorative, daisy, Fuji and spider types.  Cool nights 50-60 help maximize bloom time.  In the bud stage, Chrysanthemums need bright light near a sunny window to encourage the buds to open.  Once in full bloom, they can tolerate lower light.  However, yellow leaves and black flower centers indicate light is too low.  Avoid direct, full sunlight which can burn the flowers.
