Chrysanthemum segetum 'Schwarz-Rot-Gold' / 'German Flag'

Product number: 513650
Origin: Europe
Latin: Chrysanthemum segetum, also known as Glebionis segetum

A very easy grower. The “single” flowers have a particularly high-contrast colour: a dark purple heart, with a bright yellow rim and a warm red outer wreath. Finely incised leaves and an abundance of flowers, height 40-50 cm; this is how a picture is formed of this unique plant, which you simply must try.

Corn Marigolds grow easily and add a colourful and festive touch to the garden and vase. Before sowing, stick some pruning wood into the ground for support.
