The exact product is scheduled for early- to mid-spring flowering. Use it in a small or medium container where the yellow/gold flowers can be seen clearly. ## Siting Grow in full sun and use a draining container. Syngenta lists hardiness as not applicable for this pot-mum item, so it should be treated as seasonal color unless local growing experience confirms otherwise. ## Maintenance Check the potting mix and water when its top inch dries. Potted mums may need water every other day, depending on the container and conditions.
