Note: the plants are just coming back from winter dormancy and are still small. However, it is still a good time to plant before the heat of the summer

This is not the garland chrysanthemum or edible chrysanthemum used in Chinese cooking it is the Chinese medicinal plant. It is easy to grow and grows to a nice bushy plant in just one summer. I was hunting for that plant for a while and can finally offer it! In Katoomba it flowered quite late and the bees were all over the plant, so I actually never harvested the flowers, we love our bees after all!

Plant it with something stiff in front to hold the chrysanthemum upright, it’s a floppy plant.

  • Flowers are used in tea
  • Traditional uses include: stomach and prostate cancer, high blood pressure, lowering blood sugar
  • Grows in tropical and cool areas, Hardy to -10 C, easy to grow
  • herbaceous perennial
