 How can I show that the Chrysanthemum is a really trendy flower?  
 The secret of success is found mainly in the innovative use of Chrysanthemums; their power and colours make them ideal for experimentation. Once consumers have seen the possibilities, demand will grow proportionately. For inspiration take a look at these trend bouquets and arrangements, visit the 'with love project' and keep an eye out for aspirational lifestyle magazines.  
  How can I, as a florist, stand out against the supermarkets when it comes to sales of Chrysanthemums? 
  The best way to stand out is by not opting to use Chrysanthemum as a filler, but presenting it in different and innovative ways (solo in tiny vase, floating on a dish) and by using different and newer varieties of Chrysanthemums. 
 How can I find out what new varieties of Chrysanthemums are being developed?

  How can my customers get the most from their Chrysanthemums? 
  Advise them to unwrap the flowers as soon as they get home and to use a clean vase filled with luke warm water and perhaps a little cut flower food. They should then remove all leaves that will be under the water in the vase and slant cut the stems, removing 3 to 6 cm, so that the ends of the stems are not flat on the base of the vase. Chrysanthemums prefer a fairly cool spot and dislike direct sunlight and draughts. Any damaged or dying flowers or leaves should be removed immediately and another piece should be cut off the stems every 4 or 5 days to ensure good water absorption.
