I started from the bottom. The first eight years I didn’t win any prizes at the shows,” Mentoor shares. “Then a friend taught me some things and told me, ‘If I grew like you do, I would have given up a long time ago.’ But I told him, for me it’s about the love [for chrysanthemums].”

Chrysanthemum growers are serious about their craft because they are usually very experienced and knowledgeable, says Williams. Whilst we are still happy to execute all bids submitted in writing or by phone, fax or any other method, it should be noted that all bids left with us will be entered at our offices using the same bidding facility to which all our clients now have access. There is, therefore, no better way of ensuring the accuracy of your advance bids than to place them yourself online.

Chrysanthemums are displayed at flower show competitions, which are usually held in the first week of May, according to Williams. The NCSSA flower show is usually held in Pniel, he adds. This is a quintessential daisy-shape bloom that you see in many members of the Asteraceae Family.
