Chrysanthemum (Coronarium), also known as Garland Chrysanthemum or Crown Daisy, produces cheerful daisy-like flowers in bright yellow and white-yellow shades. It grows well in cool to mild weather, prefers full sunlight with well-drained soil, and is suitable for 8-12 inch pots, borders, garden beds, and cottage-style planting.
Native to the Mediterranean region, it spread widely as both an ornamental and leafy garden plant, becoming popular for its fresh blooms, quick growth, and natural meadow-like appearance.
