Beverly Gold Chrysanthemum (Chrysanthemum 'Beverly Gold')
kris-AN-theh-mum 'Beverly Gold'

Deciduous Perennial (usually grown as an annual near you) in the Asteraceae Family
Beverly Gold is a mound-shaped garden mum covered in clear, bright yellow daisy flowers from August into September - a cheerful early-to-mid-season choice for fall color.

Beverly Gold forms a neat, mounded habit of green foliage topped with clear yellow daisy flowers from August into September, earlier in the season than many fall mums. Botanically a perennial, but grown and sold locally as a fall-seasonal annual.

Pros

  • Clear, bright yellow flowers - a cheerful early-season fall color
  • Neat, mounded habit suits containers and borders alike
  • Attracts butterflies and other pollinators

Cons

  • Grown and sold as a fall annual here, not a reliable perennial
  • Blooms earlier than many other mums, so color fades sooner in the season
  • Like all mums, foliage/sap can cause skin irritation in sensitive people
Highlights
  • Clear yellow flowers - a brighter, cleaner yellow than the usual gold/bronze fall mum shades
  • One of the earlier-blooming mums, good for color before the main fall rush

Field-Grown vs. Greenhouse-Grown Plants

Plants which are well-adapted to our local climate are most often field-grown (outside). Field-grown plants are generally cheaper and have the advantage of already somewhat acclimated to our cold winters, but that means they’re not artificially far along in the spring and tend to bloom at the normal time in our area.

Spring annuals and tender perennials are typically grown in Greenhouses so they can be ready and luxurious exactly when customers want them. Some perennials are also “forced” into early bloom in greenhouses. In May, there can be a very big difference between field-grown and greenhouse-grown plants of the same type. The latter typically look good right away (so they’re a great choice where that’s important), but we typically pay a premium for it.

We order from a rotating cast of the best nurseries in the Great Lakes region. It looks like we've offered this plant in the past, but the nurseries we're working with this week don't appear to have it in stock at the moment.

Our goal is to bring as many plants together under "one roof" as possible, so we'll try hard to make it available again in the future!
