Chrysanthemums explained -Earlies / Lates / Mid-Season

Chrysanthemums bloom naturally from mid-August to mid-January and are divided into those that flower mid-August to mid-September (earlies), before the frosts and can therefore be grown in the garden, and those that flower mid-October onwards (lates), which are normally grown in pots so that they can be more easily brought in and flowered in a greenhouse. Those that flower in between these dates are called mid-season.
