Seasonal Flower Guide

It’s likely that “Chrysanthemum” is a flower name you’re already familiar with but did you know this humble classic could look quite as dramatic as the variety pictured above? Autumn is the best time of year for Chrysanthemums here in the UK and this blog post is going to show you that these flowers can be SO much more than just filler in a brightly coloured supermarket bunch! These versatile flowers showcase a remarkable variety of colour tones, shapes, and sizes, making them a true Autumnal treasure.

Native to Asia, Chrysanthemums have been cultivated for over 2,500 years and hold significant cultural importance in countries like Japan and China. The colour palette ranges from deep burgundies and oranges to delicate pinks and yellows, reflecting the rich tapestry of Autumn foliage.

With an incredible diversity in shapes – from the classic daisy-like petals to intricate, pom-pom forms – they offer something for every aesthetic taste.

Kicking off with Bloom Chrysanthemums. These single headed flowers are fuller, bigger, and more extroverted than their multi-headed siblings. They encompass a range of forms from those with jumbo sized, pom-pom shaped heads to others that are far more spider-like with petal tendrils that delicately unfurl.

Chrysanthemums are not just aesthetically pleasing; they also symbolise positivity and longevity which is reflected in their vase life, these hardy cut flowers will happily live indoors for up to two weeks and are guaranteed to make a statement wherever they’re placed.

Wedding Tip: with their bold colours, their rounded shape, and their many layers of petals, large, single-headed Bloom Chrysanthemums make a fantastic alternative to Dahlias which aren’t reliable enough for weddings this late in the season.
