There is no difference between chrysanthemum stalks (wormwood stalks) and chrysanthemum chrysanthemum. They are the same plant, both of the Asteraceae and Chrysanthemum genus. However, the chrysanthemum stalks are small-leaf chrysanthemum. It is more common in the north, and chrysanthemum refers to the large-leaf chrysanthemum, which is generally more common in the south. Due to their different growth environments, there are certain differences in appearance. The leaves of Artemisia stalks are generally oblong or obovate, and the flowers are in the form of flower heads. They are cool-loving plants. The leaves of Chrysanthemum chrysanthemum are generally oblong or oblong-ovate, and the flowers are in the form of inconspicuous corymbs. They are warm-loving plants.
1. Differences in leaves
1. The leaves of Artemisia stalks are generally oblong or obovate, about 2-6cm long, bipinnately split, and the leaf surface is green. The back is light green.
2. The leaves of Chrysanthemum chrysanthemum are generally oblong or oblong-ovate, about 8-10cm long, without stalks, and the upper leaves are small.
2. Flower differences
1. The flowers of Artemisia stalks are in the form of flower heads with long pedicels. The flower heads will gather to form an inconspicuous umbrella. Room inflorescences, sometimes flower heads will also grow alone on the top of the stem, the flowers are yellow, and the diameter of the inflorescence is about 0.6-1cm.
2. The inflorescence of Chrysanthemum chrysanthemum grows solitary on the top of the stem or a few grow on the top of the stem branches, forming an inconspicuous corymb inflorescence. The pedicel is 15-20cm long and the flowers are yellow.
3. Differences in living habits
1. Artemisia stalk is a cool-loving plant with strong cold resistance, but not very heat-resistant and mature. Early, suitable for cultivation in northern areas.
2. Chrysanthemum chrysanthemum is a warm-loving plant, relatively heat-tolerant, but has poor cold tolerance, slow growth, and late maturity, so it is suitable for cultivation in southern areas.
