Dendranthema rubellum 'Clara Curtis' - 2026

Dendranthema rubellum 'Clara Curtis', commonly known as a Chrysanthemum, is a hardy, herbaceous perennial admired for its abundant pink, daisy-like flowers with bright yellow centres that bloom from late summer into autumn. The cheerful blooms rise above finely divided dark green foliage, adding long-lasting colour and texture to borders, cottage gardens, and mixed perennial plantings. Its nectar-rich flowers attract bees and butterflies, supporting garden biodiversity.

Thriving in full sun with fertile, well-drained soil, Dendranthema rubellum 'Clara Curtis' is relatively low-maintenance, benefiting from deadheading to prolong flowering and cutting back after flowering to maintain a tidy appearance. Hardy and reliable, it offers vibrant late-season interest and is an excellent choice for extending summer and autumn colour in garden displays.
