How to deal with blue-eyed chrysanthemum after it withers

Introduction to Blue Chrysanthemum

First, let us understand it. In fact, it is a perennial herb, which means that it can survive for more than several years in a row, but its best condition is only in the first year, so many friends choose to replant new plants after one year of cultivation. In the second year, its growth and flowering quality will decline.

What to do after the flowers fade

Many friends are reluctant to throw away the plants after growing them for one year, so they want to continue growing them. After the flowers fade, they should cut off the withered flowers in time, and also cut off the old branches. Then, give them the best maintenance method, and they will continue to bloom in the second year. However, pruning should not be too heavy, and large-scale pruning is only allowed in winter.

You can also try cuttings after the flowering period. Blue-eyed chrysanthemum is a very easy plant to grow. It can be transplanted in about 20 days from cuttings, and you can produce another pot the following year.

Many friends also choose to pull out the mother plant and plant new plants so that they can see the blue-eyed chrysanthemum in the best condition in the second year.

You can still do this after the flowers fade

When the flowers are about to wither, they can be made into dried flowers and preserved for a long time. Or you can cut it and put it in water when it is halfway through the flowering period. It is also very suitable for decorating the room. It can also be used as cut flowers.
