Tip: Cut Back Chrysanthemums
National Gardening Association
After flowering, cut back chrysanthemum plants to a few inches from
the soil. Compost cuttings, and in colder areas, mulch plants with a 4
to 6 inch layer of chopped leaves and or bark to help the plants
survive winter.

Cut Back Chrysanthemums
I've had mums in my garden for years and I never cut them back in the fall. I believe that they survive better if the plant is allowed to shelter the roots from the winter winds and the seeds provide food for the birds. I got so many mums that every spring I give lots of divisions away to gardeners whose mums did not survive.
