Aster (China)
Chrysanthemum, Tricolor Daisy
| 6 | 11" | 11" x 11" | Originally Sold by Burpee for 2018
Using 2nd generation seeds for 2019.
This "painted daisy" was introduced from Morocco 200 years ago. The plants are about 2 ft. tall and bushy, topped in midsummer with bright daisies in a riot of colors: red, white or yellow, ringed with scarlet, mahogany, orange or rust. Flowers are 3" across. Excellent cut flowers.
How to Sow and Plant
Chrysanthemum may be grown from seed sown early indoors and transplanted outside after frost.
Sowing Seed Indoors:
Sow chrysanthemum seeds indoors 8-10 weeks before last spring frost date using a seed starting kit
Sow seeds thinly and barely press in. Do not cover with soil as light aids germination.
Keep the soil moist at 70-75 degrees F
Seedlings emerge in 10-21 days
As soon as seedlings emerge, provide plenty of light on a sunny windowsill or grow seedlings 3-4 inches beneath fluorescent plant lights turned on 16 hours per day, off for 8 hours at night. Raise the lights as the plants grow taller. Incandescent bulbs will not work for this process because they will get too hot. Most plants require a dark period to grow, do not leave lights on for 24 hours.
Seedlings do not need much fertilizer, feed when they are 3-4 weeks old using a starter solution (half strength of a complete indoor houseplant food) according to manufacturers directions.
Before planting in the garden, seedling plants need to be hardened off. Accustom young plants to outdoor conditions by moving them to a sheltered place outside for a week. Be sure to protect them from wind and hot sun at first. If frost threatens at night, cover or bring containers indoors, then take them out again in the morning. This hardening off process toughens the plants cell structure and reduces transplant shock and scalding.
Planting in the Garden:
Select a location in full sun with good rich moist organic soil.
Prepare the bed by turning the soil under to a depth of 6-12 inches, removing any debris, and lightly raking as level as possible.
