Should I use a deep or shallow pot for Dutch chrysanthemums?

Chrysanthemums are suitable for maintenance in deep pots because the plant has a well-developed root system. The selected pot should not be too shallow or too small, otherwise the root system of the plant cannot fully extend, and it will also make it difficult for the plant to bloom.

There are many materials to choose from for flower pots for chrysanthemums, such as purple clay pots, wooden pots, clay pots, etc. If you consider air permeability and drainage, it is best to use purple clay pots or clay pots.
