Abstract: We determined the contents of reducing sugar, total sugar, vitamin C, amino acid and mineral elements such as Ca, P, Fe, Cu, Zu, Mn in three varieties of chrysanthemum: Mantianxing (wild chrysanthemum), Hangbaiju (medicated chrysanthemum), Huangjingqiu (cultivated chrysanthemum). The results showed that the contents of vitamin C, reducing sugar, total sugar, amino acid in the Mantianxing (wild chrysanthemum) are 2 mg/100 g F· w and 3 mg/100 g F·w, 2 g/100 g F· wand 3 g/100g F· w, 2 g/100g F· w and 3 g/100Og F·w,1. 255 g/100g F·wand 4. 295 g/100g F· w more than those of Hangbaiju (medicated chrysanthemum) and Huangjingqiu (cultivated chrysanthemum) respectively. The contents of trace elements such as Fe, Zn, Cu, Mn in the Hangbaiju ( medicated chrysanthemum ) are 81. 35 mg/kg F·w and 64. 20 mg/kg F·w;1. 68 mg/kg F· w and 2. 53 mg/kg F· w,2. 96 mg/kg F·w and 1. 56 mg/kg F·w; 3. 13 mg/kg F · w and 5. 07 mg/kg F· w more than those of Mantianxing (wild chrysanthemum) andHuangjingqiu (cultivated chrysanthemum) respectively. While the contents of Ca and P in the Huangjingqiu (cultivated chrysanthemum) are 2. 34 mg/kg F·w and 82. 44 mg/kg F· w; 267. 44 mg/kg F· w and 73. 98 mg/kg F· w more than those of Mantianxing (Wild chrysanthemum) and Hangbaiju (medicated chrysanthemum) respectively.
