There are just a handful of flowers that perfectly typify the fall season quite like the Chrysanthemum. That is one of the reasons why breeder Royal Van Zanten has made it a duty to bring forth the finest chrysant assortments — for autumn and, certainly, the other seasons — including the latest sensation the Chrysanthemum Jellyfish® series. This is a potted plant that’s sure to enthrall even beyond this autumn season since it, just the same way, perfectly radiates a summery vibe.
Inspiration From the Shape of Little Jellyfish
The Chrysanthemum Jellyfish® series is a new and refreshing addition to the pot mum range at this breeder. It is a Chrysanthemum collection with a beautifully contemporary color palette that is perfect for your home or garden where it will convincingly put a smile on your face, no matter the season or occasion.
Consisting of pot mums with a stimulating new look and feel, the Chrysanthemum Jellyfish® series, with its lively colors that range from pastel pink to sunny orange-yellow, also makes for a completely on-trend pot flower.
These pot plants are color mutants. They, therefore, have the same characteristics, such as the growth habits. They can be mixed excellently both in pots and in trays. And besides these benefits for a grower, they can, also, create an even look on the shop shelves.
But with ‘Jellyfish’ as a name, there surely has to be something more to show for it. Yet, the Chrysanthemum Jellyfish® assortment doesn’t fail at that. It flawlessly showcases its uniqueness as a potted flower that has a distinctive shape — which is the inspiration for its name — and why it deserves the name. Plus, it bears small and adorable pompom flowers.
Available from growers SV.CO and Berkhout Plants, the flamboyant pompom shapes of the Jellyfish® — which also make the flowers look a lot like their little sea-dwelling namesakes — contribute to the stylish look and feel that these pot flowers display.
Fill Your Garden With the Chrysanthemum Jellyfish® Series From an Underwater World
For the most part, it is the almost mysterious look and air of the Chrysanthemum Jellyfish® series that inspires one to create eye-catching presentations with it. A presentation with the flowers in the series is exemplified by the thoughts of the sea, with its colors flowing smoothly into each other. It is, also, enriched by the flowers’ color gradient such as is seen in jellyfish within their oceanic ecosystems.
You can, therefore, be inspired by this beautiful depiction of the underwater world; with shades of aqua, marine animals, pebbles, and shells, when picking these amazing pot flowers for your home or garden. To draw even more attention to the arresting colors and flower shapes, you could recreate a beachy ambiance with loose flowers in different colors on a bed of sand — Think of summer and you’ll then realize why these pot flowers are perfect beyond the traditional autumn season that mums are usually associated with!
And, just to enhance this feeling, the series’ theme — which keeps up with the latest trends — retains a seawater outlook; complete with an oceanic color palette, and tiny air bubbles that add a playful touch to the ‘water’, as well as ‘waves’ on the surface of the ‘water’, and above them the transparent ‘sky’.
A tip to perfectly work with the Chrysanthemum Jellyfish® series, however, is to mix the different colors of mums available in the series. They combine surprisingly well! And the effect is a refreshing and trendy arrangement whose seaworthiness can be enhanced by using a pot or basket in aqua shades.
How to Care for Your Chrysanthemum Jellyfish®
While these pot flowers, generally, require minimal care and maintenance, some handy care tips will guarantee that you have the perfect and freshest chrysants for much longer.
For starters, you can place the pot flowers both indoors as well as outdoors, with temperatures ranging between 5-25°C. They need water about twice per week, and more often in summer than in winter. Also, just make sure that the root ball does not dry out. While at it, ensure that the roots are not left underwater.
Also, note that Chrysanthemums love the sun and therefore stay at their best in a sunny spot in the garden or at home. Another expert tip is to cut off faded flowers, this way the plant puts its energy and resources into the formation and nourishing of new flowers. With that, you can be sure to have long-lasting perfect flowers.
Chrysanthemum Jellyfish® Will Put a Smile on Your Face!
Just as colorful flowers are sure to bring cheer and enjoyment — boosting one’s mental well-being in the process — the pleasant Chrysanthemum Jellyfish® is sure to delight you with its colorfulness and its other outstanding qualities.
All you have to do is to find it a perfectly nice spot in your home or garden, place it there, and — with the right care regimen — allow it to do the rest. It will, without a doubt, put a smile on your face!
