How do you deal with chrysanthemum wilt?

Our Advice:

Chrysanthemum wilt is a fungal disease that can cause yellowing, wilting, and eventual death of the plant. To prevent chrysanthemum wilt, choose disease-resistant cultivars and plant them in well-draining soil with good air circulation. Avoid overwatering or watering the foliage, and remove any affected leaves or flowers immediately. If your plant becomes infected, you can use a fungicide such as copper sulfate or chlorothalonil to control the disease. It's important to follow the manufacturer's instructions for application rates and timing.
