Culture for Pot Plants 
Pot growing of chrysanthemums should be encouraged 
in several states where early freezing conditions prevail. 
When they are pot-grown, they can be easily removed 
into shelter when the hazards of freezing, wind, and rain 
occur. Again, especially when the growing ground is 
limited in the garden, potted plants may find place on 
the side of walks, on edges of steps or in porches if 
one-half day sunshine is available. 
Mostly all the chrysanthemums of our fall displays are 
grown in pots. This practice is carried by us because old 
flowers are being removed constantly as the season 
progresses. Our display ranges from single flowering exhi- 
bition flower to 500-blossoms specimen plant in single 
container. 
Fresh cuttings are potted immediately into 5- or 6-inch 
pots around May 15th. Plants should not be allowed to 

become pot-bound before shifting into larger pots. Other 
culture being similar to those of ground plantings. 
Plants may be allowed to bear flowers as follows:
