In the garden

Chrysanthemum 'Gold Enbee Wedding' (29d) is a clump-forming member of the Asteraceae and represents the garden Chrysanthemum group used for late-season display. As a deciduous perennial it shows its value when it flowers from August to October, bringing colour at the end of summer and into autumn. Plant in a site that receives full sun and is south-facing where possible; protection from strong prevailing winds helps preserve flower stems. It favours a loam soil with a neutral pH and that remains moist but well drained—avoid compacted, waterlogged ground. The variety is rated H4, which corresponds to average winter hardiness for UK gardens. Use it at the front or middle of mixed borders, in containers on a sheltered patio, or grown specifically for cutting. Position in a sheltered spot to reduce stem breakage and to keep blooms intact through its August to October season. Regularly remove spent flowers if you want extended display, and plant where its seasonal flush of blooms will be visible from paths or windows.
