Blush™ Apricot Chrysanthemum

Blush™ Apricot is a spring-flowering pot mum with a daisy form and large pastel blooms. Syngenta lists the exact color variety as product 70018670 and recommends full sun and small or medium pots. The breeder’s profile does not give a verified mature height or width, so use the finished container size as a practical guide rather than assuming an outdoor garden-mum size. [Syngenta’s product profile identifies the color variety and production use.](https://www.syngentaflowers.com/ams/product/flower/70018670) ## Flowering and use This color variety belongs to the Blush™ family of *Chrysanthemum indicum* pot mums. Syngenta describes the family as having large pastel daisy flowers for spring retail and seasonal combination containers; its product page lists early- to mid-spring flowering, medium vigor, full-sun exposure, and small or medium recommended pots. The cultivar name indicates an apricot shade, while the product page’s color category is broader and does not specify a precise RHS color value. ## Siting Grow in a bright, sunny position during production and display it in a container with drainage. This is a greenhouse-finished flowering pot plant; the breeder does not assign it an outdoor hardiness zone. Do not treat generic garden-mum hardiness as confirmed for this specific spring pot-mum item. ## Maintenance For a potted mum, Illinois Extension advises watering every other day or whenever the top inch of mix is dry. Check the soil as weather and container conditions change. [Illinois Extension’s potted-mum care guide](https://extension.illinois.edu/blogs/over-garden-fence/2024-10-17-mums-word) gives this general care guidance.
