Chrysanthemums: An update

I had earlier written about how we had bought three chrysanthemum plants from the nearby plant nursery and the Sunday market.We intentionally bought three different colored varieties, a white, yellow and purple, with the hope of adding some colors to the garden when their blooming season arrives. The yellow one died sometime back in December. We suspect December's harsh cold climate at nights were to blame, if that is even possible in our part of the country. But yeah, it was colder than usual this winter. 

The real twist in the tale is that the one we bought as white variety turned out to be actually yellow and the purple variety looks like pale white when it is fully bloomed. So the gist is, we haven't obtained the aimed result in adding different colors with our chrysanthemums, but boy we ended up with loads of beautiful flowers during their first season at home.

Well, as the saying goes, pictures speak better than words.
