Chrysanthemum Polar Starflowers bloom over a long period so they are perfect for the border. Chrysanthemums do best in full sun and in soil that is slightly moist, fertile, neutral to slightly acid, and well-drained.
Chrysanthemum Polar Starflowers come into their own when all other annuals are beginning to tire, and they are excellent as cut flowers.
For areas with short growing seasons, start the Polar Starflower seeds indoors 4 - 6 weeks before the end of frost season. Lightly press the flower seeds into the starter mix and keep seeds moist but not saturated. Transplant seedlings outdoors after danger of frost has passed.
For warmer climates, sow the Chrysanthemum seeds directly outdoors in a prepared seedbed once frost season is over. Lightly cover the flower seeds with soil and keep the seeds moist until germination occurs. Pinch back young Polar Star plants to keep them busy.
I ordered Red Fountain you sent Red Bamboo #381. The other order was Red Dragon, you sent Orange Bamboo #391. Toadstoolseeds.com sent them. I sent you an email about this earlier. Can you send the correct seeds?
I bought some red sunflower seeds from this website. I also bought seeds from the big box store. The seeds I bought from this website sprouted first and look very robust. I am ordering more. Look for the next review once they bloom!!!
The seeds arrived quickly but we did not receive part of our order. We are still waiting for the ones we received to grow so too early for full review.
