Gigi™ Dark Pink Chrysanthemum

Gigi™ Dark Pink Chrysanthemum is a compact garden mum with purple and dark pink flowers. Syngenta lists this exact selection for fall flowering in full sun, recommends small or medium pots and hanging baskets, and gives its color as Purple / Dark Pink ([breeder profile](https://www.syngentaflowers.com/ams/product/flower/70038552)). ## Flowers and placement Use this compact selection for late-season color in a pot, planter, or hanging basket. It can also join an autumn border or mixed display; the [Royal Horticultural Society’s chrysanthemum guide](https://www.rhs.org.uk/plants/chrysanthemum) describes chrysanthemums as useful in late-summer and autumn borders and containers. ## Growing conditions Choose a sunny position and fertile soil or peat-free compost that stays moist while draining freely. Water during dry spells, especially in containers, while avoiding waterlogged roots. The RHS notes that most chrysanthemums dislike heavy frost and saturated soil. The breeder does not list a USDA hardiness zone for this selection, so winter survival depends on local conditions and protection. ## Maintenance Keep container compost evenly moist while the plant is actively growing and remove faded flowers to tidy the display. Set plants outdoors after frost danger has passed. In cold-winter climates, protect the plant or enjoy it as seasonal bedding.
