When is the best time to plant chrysanthemums?

Our Advice:

The best time to plant chrysanthemums depends on the growing zone and climate. In general, chrysanthemums should be planted in the spring or early summer, after the last frost date in your area. This allows the plants to establish their roots before the hot summer months. In warmer climates, chrysanthemums can also be planted in the fall for a second bloom. It's important to choose a sunny location with well-draining soil, and to space the plants at least 18 to 24 inches apart.
