I was given a number of chrysanthemums at the beginning of the year.as recommended I pinched out all the tops to propagate.
Now there was a variety of colours yellow,bronze, and white.
All the cuttings were successful but they are all yellow.

I would be interested in the logistics. I.e., did you start the cuttings from each plant in separate common pots, or did you bung them all into the same flat?

I wish it was that simple.
Every cutting was in separate pots.
How would that make any difference if they had been potted altogether?

When they are all crowded together, it makes it harder to determine when some have died. Also, Pancy, did you do all the cuttings yourself, or did you have help?

Hello again.
I was very lucky, I took forty eight cuttings and every one rooted.
I then potted them up into bigger pots, and then when they were about six inches tall I put them into the garden.
I will take some pics, I look every day, all yellow.

Well, something just isn't adding up. The only way that they could all end up yellow, is if they all started out yellow. Do you have 48 plants now--that's a lot of chrysanthemums!--or did you have heavy late casualties?

Very mysterious - if you propagate this way, they should be the same as the parent plant. Be interested to see if anyone comes up with an explanation...
