Longwood Grows its Largest Thousand Bloom Chrysanthemum Ever.

The Thousand Bloom Chrysanthemum (known in Japan as Ozukuri) refers to a technique, originating in China and expanding to Japan several hundred years ago, for growing an extremely large Chrysanthemum, with a goal of producing the maximum number of flowers possible on a single plant.
This year, Longwood has grown its largest Thousand Bloom ever-and one of the largest ever grown in the United States-featuring 718 perfect blooms and measuring more than 8 ft in diameter! This magnificent chrysanthemum is on display now through November 22.
