No one will argue that selling potted indoor plants is a very successful business.

That is why, according to the expert of the online publication BelNovosti, scientist-agronomist, landscape designer Anastasia Kovrizhnykh , unscrupulous florists do not care that the flowers will delight you with their beauty for as long as possible.

Therefore, after a short time, the aesthetic picture is replaced by another - the indoor plants fade, and their appearance no longer attracts anyone.

The further actions of flower growers vary depending on the flower variety. Today we suggest you find out how to deal with chrysanthemums in this case.

So, if you have a plot of land at your disposal, you can try to transplant this “beauty” into the garden.

The foliage of this plant is very fragrant and emits an aroma that repels many pests.

So the plan of action is to cut off the leaves, chop them up and bury them in your vegetable beds – this way you can protect your crops from harmful insects.
