Adding brilliance in the late season garden, Chrysanthemum ‘Harmony’ is a hardy garden mum featuring profuse sprays of large, up to 2.5 in. across (7 cm), bright yellow, daisy-like flowers. As the luminous blossoms age, they fade to creamy-yellow and pale pink. Blooming from late summer to late fall, the multibranched stems are covered with flowers which stand out against the green foliage. This perennial forms a compact, bushy mound and does not require staking. Easy to grow, it is an excellent choice for sunny borders or containers. Ideal to brighten the fall garden!

  • Grows up to 18-24 in. tall (45-60 cm) and 24-36 in. wide (60-90 cm)
  • Best flowering occurs in full sun in fertile, well-drained soils enriched with organic matter and general-purpose fertilizer. Water freely in dry weather. Plant in a sheltered location to protect your Chrysanthemum from strong winds.
  • Pinch out the growing tip when the plants are 6-8 in. tall (15-20 cm) to encourage free-flowering, bushy plants. Cut back to near ground level in the fall.
  • Toxic to dogs, toxic to cats, toxic to horses.
