Hardy Chrysanthemum (Garden Mums) Tea? – Reddit Post

So I was looking up info about chrysanthemums and I guess the flowers can be dried and used to make tea. Tisane to be more precise. I love the taste of tisanes made from flowers so I’m very interested in making tisane from the flowers of my mom’s pink garden mums.

Well, I DuckDuckGoed (DuckDuckWent lol?) to my hearts content and I absolutely cannot find any information on if this variety of mums is safe to be brewed with. I read that ones you get from the florist aren’t safe to be brewed with because of all the pesticides and stuff it may contain. But it didn’t say this about garden mums so IDK. Do y’all think these flowers are safe to be brewed with?

The only fertilizer I’ve used on these garden mums is liquid Flower Fertilizer from TPS Nutrients. Though I’m sure there’s some kind of slow release fertilizer in the soil from the local garden center we bought them from a few weeks ago. Not sure if any of this matters but yeah just thought I’d mention it.
