Genevieve™ Purple Bicolor Chrysanthemum

Genevieve Purple Bicolor is the purple and dark-pink color variety in Syngenta’s Fleurette potted-mum program, product 70046047. Syngenta lists Chrysanthemum indicum with compact vigor, full sun, small pots, and flowering from early spring through winter. Actual flowering and display length vary with production and local conditions. ## Placement and seasonal display Use it as a flowering potted accent where its purple and dark-pink blooms can brighten a patio, entry, or indoor display. The breeder recommends full sun and small pots for this selection. Its listed flowering span covers spring, summer, fall, and winter. ## Watering For a flowering potted mum indoors, Iowa State University Extension recommends a bright, cool location and checking the potting mix often. Water when the surface feels dry, soaking until water drains from the pot; empty any decorative cover so the roots do not sit in water. ## Maintenance Treat this florist-style potted mum as a seasonal display. Iowa State notes that flowering potted florist mums are not winter hardy in Iowa and recommends composting them after flowering; local climate and cultivar conditions may differ.
