I just added this Garden Mum to my garden yesterday. After researching it I found it interesting that blooms
"are composed of many individual flowers (florets), each one capable of producing a seed. The disk florets are in the center of the bloom head, and the ray florets are on the perimeter. The ray florets are considered imperfect flowers, as they only possess the female productive organs, while the disk florets are considered perfect flowers, as they possess both male and female reproductive organs." (Wikipedia)
I purchased two plants in full bloom and the color certainly complements the rest of my garden. This photo was taken rather late and appears dark as a result
