Chrysanthemums contain substances that are toxic to many insects. They are particularly effective against Japanese beetles and root nematodes.

Starting in May, pinch shoots back when they reach 6" long. Continue pinching back through July 4th to allow time to flower

Every 1-3 years you can dig up and divide mums. Do this in Spring. Plant with asters, sedum, and ornamental grasses. #companionplanting Plant daffodils and tulips behind them to provide color in the spring while mums are just waking up.
