We have been working closely with the top exhibitors in the National Chrysanthemum Society to improve the quality of plants available to growers. The best selections, from the most popular varieties they grow, have been sent to a laboratory to be micro propagated. This process, in addition to removing any viruses, has the advantage of producing plants that are much more vigorous than normally propagated cuttings. When you take your own cuttings from the same stock year after year, there is a gradual deterioration in performance. This is often so slight that it is not readily noticeable, but over time you will not be getting the very best from your plants. However, it is very obvious, when planted next to your own stock, how much better the growth is on plants from the laboratory.
We are able to offer the varieties below as Nuclear Stock. They will be available initially in limited numbers, for delivery from the 30th January 2012. As the season progresses we will have more stock being propagated so, if a variety is SOLD OUT, it will become available again later. Plants must be ordered via the website or over the telephone, so that we can monitor the stock that we have available.
Plants are priced at £3.30 each. There is no discount on Nuclear Stock.
From each plant sold Chrysanthemums Direct will pay £1.00 to the National Chrysanthemum Society. This will help them with the cost of keeping stock in the laboratory and also allow more varieties to be sent for micro propagation.

Plant Prices and Delivery costs
Nuclear Stock varieties £3.30 each.
Olympic Gold £3.50 each.
All other varieties are priced at £2.30 each.
Buy 10 or more plants and receive a 10% discount. (This offer excludes all Nuclear Stock varieties.)
The discount will be applied at the checkout.
Postage and packing on all orders, to UK addresses, is £3.95, regardless of the number of plants ordered.
Due to the number of orders going to the EU that were being delayed, and having to be re-sent, we will now only send parcels to the EU by courier. Unfortunately this has meant a large increase in the cost, but it does ensure that orders arrive promptly and in excellent condition. Therefore all EU orders are subject to a P&P charge of £45.00.
Sorry, but we cannot send orders beyond the EU.
