(2 customer reviews)

$16.00

Family: Aster (Asteraceae)

Hardy to Zones 5 to 10

(Autumn Chrysanthemum, Bo-ju-hua) Evergreen subshrub native to China, an ancient cultigen that cannot be propagated by seed.  This is a choice cultivar, flowering to 3 feet tall and equally as wide, with single-petaled flowers of cream, between 1 and 2 inches in size.  Flowering occurs in my Zone 7 garden in the fall.  Main harvest occurs around Halloween (Oct 31).  This cultivar flowers earlier than Gong-ju-hua.  Taste sweet, considered to be a superior flower for making Chrysanthemum tea. Traditional uses (TCM): one of the Chinese herbs that releases the exterior, used in treating common cold, flu, fever and heatstroke; high blood pressure, heart pain, atherosclerosis; dizziness, hearing loss, tinnitus, headache and migraine; red and swollen eyes, blurry vision; liver inflammation and toxicity; infections including staphylococcus, streptococcus and blood spirochetes.  Plant prefers sun and well-drained garden soil, frequent watering.  Space plants 2 feet apart.

    My review two years later. I have enjoyed the tea. It is soothing with an amazing taste. My beautiful plant is thriving in zone 9b. Thanks for this great addition to my collection of natural herb teas.
    This year I just received my order of other medicinal plants. Very happy with how they arrived.
    Thanks Richo

    2 years later, First bunch flowers!

    This has been thriving this year after transplanting from a smallish pot and into a cloth pot (airpot). It requires regular waterings and at least trippled in size this summer. I just harvested my first bunch of flowers to brew a cup of tea. Delicious! Should also help my wife’s tinnitus which is why I bought this in the first place.
