Chrysanthemums in Aberdeen - Directory

Salmon Pauline White
awaiting picture		Octoberr classified large salmon intermediate. (15a S) Root: see below. Blooms per plant: 2 for exhibition. Height: 1.2 metres appx Protection: greenhouse
Cultural guide supplied by Roger Brownbridge: Root - mid February Stop - April 20/ June 15 for later shows, second stop June 1 for earlier shows but better suited fro the later shows since the later bud produces a kinder flower. Take 3 up to bud and down to two when secured Protection - greenhouse Grow in 8.5'' pot, build plant before bud and then ease back on feed through bud swell otherwise it will damp on you. On the second stop take the breaks coming out of the top of the first break which by this time will be at 45degrees to the main plant, by doing this hopefully your flowering lateral will be vertical, it is an awful grower! Height - 3' -6
U.K. Regional Stopping guide The dates we choose for stopping our chrysanths can never be guaranteed to produce flowers on a specific date for a specific show, weather conditions and other factors (such as garden aspect, location, cultural routine etc) will all play a part in influencing speed of plant development following the stop. The following information relates to stopping dates for producing blooms for Shows during the first half of September and are offered as a start point for new growers. Adjustments should be made for later or earlier shows.
