Nantucket™ Purple Bicolor Chrysanthemum

Nantucket™ Purple Bicolor is a full-sun pot mum with a pink-and-white bicolor pattern. Syngenta describes it as more vigorous than La Belle™ Dark Pink Bicolor and a better choice for 6-inch pots, while noting that high temperatures can make the bicolor pattern streaky. ## Color and placement The [Syngenta product page](https://www.syngentaflowers.com/ams/product/flower/70091007) identifies product 70091007 as Nantucket™ Purple Bicolor. Its description calls the pattern pink and white; the feature list groups its color as purple/dark pink. Syngenta recommends small or medium pots and specifically notes 6-inch pots as a good use. Place it in full sun for a compact seasonal container display. ## Temperature note The breeder cautions that the bicolor pattern becomes streaky in higher temperatures and says this variety is not the best choice for summer. Use it when conditions are cooler if a crisp pattern matters. ## Maintenance Keep the compost evenly moist but not soggy and let water drain through the pot. The [Royal Horticultural Society's chrysanthemum guide](https://www.rhs.org.uk/plants/chrysanthemum) recommends fertile, moist, well-drained growing media and a sheltered position. Remove faded flowers as the display finishes and protect the pot from hard frost; the product page does not state a hardiness rating.
