Fleurette Snappy Dark Pink Chrysanthemum

Snappy Dark Pink is a compact Fleurette pot chrysanthemum with purple and dark pink flowers. Syngenta identifies it as Chrysanthemum indicum, recommends full sun and small pots, and lists flowering from early spring through winter; the breeder does not specify a hardiness zone. ## Flowering and placement Use this color selection as a bright focal point in a sunny patio container or grouped pot display. Syngenta describes the Snappy series as a faster flowering update to the Fleurette program, with larger flowers than traditional Fleurettes. Its listing confirms the exact trade name and product code, while the current wholesale catalog also lists this selection for growers. ## Growing in containers Give the plant a sunny position and a container with drainage. For general chrysanthemum care, Penn State Extension recommends at least five to six hours of early morning sun and watering potted plants when the mix has dried two to three inches below the surface. That guidance helps maintain an evenly moist root zone without leaving the pot waterlogged. The breeder recommends small pots for this compact crop; it does not publish a mature garden height, width, or USDA zone for this selection. ## Maintenance Check the potting mix regularly, especially during warm or windy weather, and water thoroughly when the upper mix has dried. Remove faded flowers for a tidier display. Treat the plant as a container flowering accent and follow local frost conditions when deciding how long to keep it outdoors.
