Chrysanth' mystery.
 

I've just picked up a chrysanthemum from the local B&Q which was being sold
off cheaply because it had had only half a label and its pot was damaged.
It's in full flower (pinky-white) and has hundreds of blossoms in a ball
shaped-plant...... about 12" tall..... very showy.
The only word I can see on the label appears to be Jasoda....something ?
Now I know nothing about chrysanths and I wonder if anyone can advise me on
what variety this might be and whether it is a HP or HHP.
Ideally, I would like to plant it in the garden...... I've got just the
spot..... but I'm not sure if it's safe to do so.

Can anyone help please.

Jasoda

Not a lot of help but I can tell you that the group of letters "Jasoda"
does not appear in the 2008-2009 plant finder either as a whole word or
part of a word, so best guess is this is a cut flower variety not sold to
the public and probebly requires computer controled day lengths to get it
to flower

Does this look like it? I think it's a florist's type, if you see what
I mean but you might get some cultivation tips from the site

There is a strain of Chrysanths, including Jasoda Pink and Jasoda White.
Try a google and see if there's a pic to match yours.

The Jasoda range of chrysanths are derived from the 'charm' chrysanthemums
which have been grown for many years in the UK. They are usually grown in 7"
pots which are placed outside once the risk of frost has gone. When grown
for show, the plants are turned 90 degrees every day to ensure that the
plant develops a symmetrical shape. They are normally taken under cover in
September and flower in October and November. They would be unlikely to
survive outside in the winter, dampness being as much a killer as frost.
They are normally propagated from cuttings taken under glass in February.
