In the northern region, ordinary families generally raise 4-7 potted chrysanthemums. After planting chrysanthemum seedlings, leave 4-5 leaves for coring. When 4-5 leaves grow on the side branches, 2-3 leaves are left on each side branch for the second coring.
Cut the branches of chrysanthemum after flowering from the roots, and then cut them after flowering, and the branches without flowering will slowly wither by themselves. Rooted seedlings can survive the winter without cutting. After chrysanthemum blossoms, only the old branches after flowering need to be cut off, and the root seedlings had better spend the winter overnight.
