Chrysanthemum spp.
The buttery yellow bush Chrysanthemums in the Gardner Museum's living collection are the variety 'Gloria.' They are descendants of Isabella's mums, genetically identical to mums that she grew. They have been propagated by cuttings or division by the Gardner's gardeners every single year since Isabella was alive. This is a testament to our uninterrupted line of care.
