Description
Chrysanthemums, also known by their initials as Mums or Chrysanths, are flowering plants of the genus Chrysanthemum in the family Asteraceae and native to East Asia and northeastern Europe. The name “chrysanthemum” comes from ancient Greek words meaning “gold” and “flower”. There are thousands of cultivars of chrysanthemums that can grow to be 2–4 feet tall and come in various colors, including white, yellow, orange, lavender, purple, and red.
Chrysanthemum flowers have many tiny stamens that stick together and are paired to form round mushroom head shapes. They are partly fused to two carpels in disc florets. The stamen is located on the central disk florets, which are small flowers that contain both the pistil and stamen. The outer 20 to 30 peripheral ray florets only have the pistil and are generally female with arrested stamens.
Chrysanthemum petals are technically called florets. Florets are small or reduced flowers that form a dense cluster on a larger inflorescence, which can be called a flower head. There are two types of florets: disk florets and ray florets. The florets in the center of the flower are called disk florets, and the ones around the center are called ray florets. Disk florets have no petals, while ray florets have one petal each. A composite flower can be made up of all ray florets, a single outer row of ray florets, or any combination of ray and disk florets.
Chrysanthemum flower petals are the ray florets and the outermost petals of the composite bloom. They have streamlined shapes, are long, and have straight veined lines. The petals are curved and convex in the shape of boats or spoon-shaped and wavy in feathery or quill-shaped. Some chrysanthemum flowers come in two or three colors on a single flower, with most having a mix of two colors, and some chrysanthemum species come with upper and lower colors that are different in the same petals.
Chrysanthemum sepals are absent, but a pappus is formed in their place, which can be considered a rudimentary sepal. As is typical of the flowering head of the chrysanthemum, they produce a scaly, bowl-shaped involucrum on the underside. A characteristic of this is that the calyx, the floral part that surrounds the petals, is modified into a structure called a pappus.
Chrysanthemum leaves can be different in size and shape; they are thin, flat, ovate, and similar in shape to oak leaves. They are attached to a pale green to white stem and can be glossy or hairy, depending on the species. The sap-green leaves grow in an alternating pattern and are divided into leaflets with serrated edges. There are two main varieties of Chrysanthemum leaves: small leaf and broadleaf. Both varieties have long green leaves attached to a slightly fibrous pale green to white stem.
