Every fall I have a wonderful time photographing chrysanthemums at local botanical gardens. But I never seem to get the photos edited to share the photos when I take them. Instead I seem to post them in the spring. So here are a few of the Intermediate and Irregular Incurve Chrysanthemums I photographed last fall.

The Irregular Incurve Chrysanthemums are known for the curving petals and tight centers. They are often among the largest types of chrysanthemums I see each year.

The Intermediate Incurve Chrysanthemums tend to be a bit smaller than the Irregular Incurve Chrysanthemums. They have shorter petals and a more open center.

I hope you’ve enjoyed seeing some of the chrysanthemums I photographed last fall. I’ll try to post a few more in the coming weeks.
