Details
Chrysanthemum 'Hestia Hot Red' is a beautiful, bright red Hardy Mum. For best flowering, pinch the growing tips of chrysanthemums several times during the season up until the first week of July. This pinching will ensure a more compact and floriferous plant. Mulch garden mums heavily in the fall to ensure winter survival.
