A "full-standing multiflorous chrysanthemum" grafted in central China's Henan Province has earned its place in the Guinness Book of World Records for containing the largest number of chrysanthemum species.

The multiflorous chrysanthemum is 3.8 meters in diameter and composed of 641 different types of chrysanthemums grafted to southernwood. It was certified for the world record on Sunday in Kaifeng City, Henan Province.

A representative of Guinness Book of World Records made the announcement at a chrysanthemum festival in Kaifeng City.

It took about four years to cultivate the plant, which now has more than 1,500 flowers blossoming at one time.
