🌱 This plant, the Chrysanthemum, is worth trying in your garden as it is fragrant and exotic-looking.

🌺 The Chrysanthemum flowers before the foliage comes out, adding a unique touch to your garden.

🍃 It is a hardy plant that can grow up to 5 feet tall and is suitable for Zone 8b locations.

🌸 Unfortunately, a previous caretaker cut down a Chrysanthemum plant, but it is foolproof in the climate on Salt Spring Island.

🦌 However, if you have deer in your area, you may need to protect the Chrysanthemum from them.
