Just don’t have room for chrysanthemums - my little patch is full up with summer stuff, and I don’t get any space till I rip it all out.
And, of course, I don’t rip it out till I’m absolutely convinced that it’s finished!
(By which time it’s too late to think about autumn flowering things).
I do like chrysanthemums though, and there are some smashers around.
I’d have to follow you and rip up the lawn if I wanted to grow them. And you thought you were too old to do that at 54!
Add on another sixteen years to that, and you see my problem!

I noticed Morries were selling off chrysanth for 20p each. Its doubtful they would flower for this year now but I wish I had bought some now for flowering next year.Wish I had spotted some - I have grown a few over the years - some beauties for GH flowering over xmas and some for Autumn flowering....but I love the dahlias a little bit more. Maybe i will find some energy to dig a few more borders.
