Herbstanemone (Anemone Huphensis) form attractive flowers
Automatic tales are not only hardy and easy to care for, but also form attractive flowers, the shape of which depends on the variety. Varieties that deserve their attention are: “Serenada” - blooms with pale pink flowers that have beautiful yellow dust vessels, “pamina” forms bright, semi -filled, dark pink flowers with strong yellow stamens, “whirlwind” is characterized by rotated, pure white flowers from whose heydays last until the end of October.
Automatic tales are true sun eaters and prefer a place where you can get sunlight from different sides. But you also feel comfortable in partially shaded areas. Since the stems of the plant can reach a length of 60 to 140 cm, when buying the plant, you should pay particular attention to the growth height and choose a smaller variety for your balcony if necessary. Make sure that the plant is protected by the wind so that the stems do not bend. Use the lowest possible flower pot when planted. The reason for this is that the roots become very long and offer the plant more.
Keep the earth evenly moist, but avoid waterlogging. The flowers can develop particularly well if they give the plant a dose of fertilizer. With a long -term fertilizer that releases the nutrients over several months, it's very easy.

Autumn chrysanthemums are only suitable for a covered balcony

The flower is usually promoted by regularly removing the withered parts. However, autumn chrysanthemums are only limited.

When growing, make sure that excess water can drain off slightly. We also recommend mixing the container earth with a little sand when cultivation, to make the earth particularly permeable. When watering, make sure that the earth is damp but not too wet.
Autumn chrysanthemums that deserve your attention are: “Poetry”-blooms from October to the end of November with first cream-white and then pure white flowers, “apricot”-this variety blooms into apricot-colored flowers, “bees”-until November Gold-yellow flowers with an orange-brown middle are shown from the end of September.
