Presidio™ Deep Pink Chrysanthemum

Presidio™ Deep Pink is a Syngenta Chrysanthemum indicum pot mum with decorative deep-pink flowers. Syngenta’s pot-mum catalogs describe medium-to-large blooms and tall crop vigor, with a 7.5-week response under production scheduling. These are grower specifications for a potted flowering plant, not a stated mature landscape height. ## Flowers and display The pink blooms make a strong seasonal accent in a porch pot, patio container, or entry planting. Use it alone for a solid block of color or group it with contrasting foliage and other fall flowers. Mums form buds as days shorten, while growers can schedule flowering for planned retail seasons. ## Growing conditions Place the pot in full sun. Container soil can dry quickly, so check moisture regularly and water thoroughly when needed; allow extra water to drain freely. Seasonal florist mums are not necessarily bred to survive cold winters, unlike selections specifically chosen for hardiness. ## Maintenance Remove faded flowers to keep the display tidy. Keep the container from sitting in standing water and replace it when flowering has finished.
