When the plants have filled the 9cm pots, they will be ready to be moved on into larger pots. In early April the plants can be potted on into 13 cm pots (using the same compost as before) before moving them into the cold frame. Keep a close eye on the weather forecast and provide some form of frost protection if needed e.g. horticultural fleece. Around the beginning of May, start ventilating gradually to harden the plants off for planting out or potting on into final pots from mid May onwards or after the last frost.

🌼 Fancy trying your hand at growing chrysanthemums? 🌼

There’s a lovely beginner‑friendly session happening at RHS Garden Bridgewater on 1 March at 11am — and it’s free with garden entry.

You’ll hear from Jim Vickerman, a multi‑time National Champion, who’ll talk about:

✨ What makes chrysanthemums so special
✨ The huge range of colours and types they come in
✨ How he grows his own
✨ Easy tips to help you get started

🌿 It’s a relaxed, welcoming session — perfect if you’re new to gardening, want to learn something fun, or just love beautiful plants. And you can make a day of it exploring the gardens too.

We’re really happy to help spread the word. It’s a great little intro to growing, and everyone’s welcome
