Dendranthema 'Beppe Red' is a striking, perennial chrysanthemum celebrated for its vivid, late-season blooms from August to October. This half-hardy variety produces an abundance of daisy-like flowers in deep, velvety red hues, making it a standout feature in autumn gardens. The bold colour of its petals is beautifully offset by a sunny yellow centre, creating a dramatic yet cheerful effect. Growing to a height of up to 1m, 'Beppe Red' forms a neat, bushy habit, ideal for borders, containers, or as part of a cottage garden design. Hardy to around -5°C, it thrives in full sun and well-drained soil, requiring minimal care apart from occasional deadheading to prolong its flowering period, which extends from late summer into autumn. In addition to its ornamental appeal, 'Beppe Red' is a magnet for pollinators, drawing bees and butterflies into the garden. Its long-lasting blooms also make it a favourite for cut flower arrangements, bringing rich colour and warmth indoors during the cooler months.
