People have grown chrysanthemums for more than 2,000 years. Chinese and other Asian cultures make tea with the flowers. But mums also make bright and colorful gardens.

One basic kind of mum is the hardy or garden mum. The other basic kind is the florist mum. The garden mum is better able to handle different growing conditions than the florist mum.

There are many varieties of mums. The decorative mum is often seen in gardens. Another popular type, the quill mum, has long, straight petals like a tube or needle.

Chrysanthemum blooms can be white, yellow, gold, red or other colors. The plants often grow to one meter in height.

The soil should be kept moist but well drained so it does not get too wet.

Newly planted mums should be watered 2 or 3 times a week, depending on conditions. Plants established in the ground may do well with just normal rainfall. In dry conditions they will need more water.

Mums grow best in full sunshine. They produce colorful blooms when days get shorter and nights get longer. The life cycle of the plant depends on the amount of daylight. This is why experts advise against placing mums near nightlights or streetlights. The light may interfere with their normal growth cycle. The plants may develop buds too soon.

土壤必须保持湿润，但是必须有良好的排水条件，这样就不会太湿。

新种植的菊花应每周浇水两至三次，依情况而定。种植在地面的植株一般情况下只需正常的降雨就可以了。在干燥的情况下可能需要更多的水。

菊花在充足的阳光照射下生长{zh0}。当白天变短，夜间变长时，就会开出色彩鲜艳的花朵。植株的生命周期取决于日照时间。所以专家建议不要将菊花放置在夜灯和路灯附近。灯光会影响植株的正常生长周期。植株也会过早开花。
