    Pam, it looks like one of the Japanese or Korean, Chrysanths. No matter what it is, it has been forced, so needs to be taken indoors and treated as a houseplant.:gnthb:

    What do you suggest i do with it, :help:
    if i leave it in the pot and tuck it up the corner,out of the wind, with fleece around the pot , do you think it will have half a chance ,
    or
    put it in the plastic greenhouse off the ground with no heat with the fuchsias,
    or
    plant it in the ground by the wall that seems pretty much frost free and mulch really well
    as i wont be here to look after it :dh:

    Pam, put it in the greenhouse, wrap the pot in bubble and cover with fleece. It should be okay.:gnthb:
