Half Flame

Chrysanthemum variety 'Half Flame' is an eye-catching plant with bright red flowers resembling flames. This annual variety grows to about 90 cm tall and is characterized by large, double flowers composed of hundreds of ray florets. Blooming begins in July and continues until late autumn frosts, allowing you to enjoy its rich red hue for a long period. Stems and flowers are highly durable, making this variety especially attractive for cut flowers and creating striking compositions in vases and flowerbeds.

To grow Chrysanthemum 'Half Flame', sow seeds in early spring in pots or on protected sunny spots. Strong seedlings are transplanted into open ground in May onto sunny areas with moderately permeable soil. The plant is hardy and thrives in various garden conditions. Due to its cold resistance, the chrysanthemum continues blooming from summer until the coldest days, allowing it to be combined with other late-blooming plants such as asters, hydrangeas, blackberry, or sea buckthorn.

The distinctive feature of this variety is its rich cherry-red color with a slight glossy sheen and bright green center, which adds extra volume and freshness to the flowers. The flowers are round, semi-double, compact, and very decorative, with bud size of 3–4 cm. Up to 25 flowers can be found on a single stem, creating the effect of a real bouquet. This variety will be a true star among small-flowered chrysanthemums and will adorn any garden or interior.
