[Syngenta’s product profile confirms the color and pot-mum use.](https://www.syngentaflowers.com/ams/product/flower/70018543) ## Flowering and use The Blush™ family is presented for spring color in seasonal containers. Syngenta lists this variety as flowering early to mid spring with medium vigor, and recommends full sun and small or medium pots. The reported color is pink/lavender; the catalog’s “dark pink” name is preserved as the retail identity, while the broader breeder color description is reflected in the flower-color wording. ## Siting Place the container where the plant receives bright light and has room for air movement. Syngenta’s profile is for a potted mum crop and does not provide an outdoor hardiness zone or a mature landscape size. Use it as a seasonal flowering accent rather than treating it as a proven hardy perennial. ## 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.
