Jacqueline™ Pearl Chrysanthemum

Jacqueline™ Pearl is Syngenta’s white-flowered variety in the Jacqueline garden-mum family. The breeder lists it for fall flowering, with a garden height of 30–40 cm and width of 30–35 cm, and recommends it for several container sizes. ## Landscape Use Use Pearl for a light-colored accent in borders, seasonal mass plantings, or patio pots. Syngenta describes the Jacqueline family as naturally rounded and suitable for hanging baskets and small through large pots. The [exact Pearl product page](https://www.syngentaflowers.com/apac/product/flower/70018828) provides its dimensions, flowering season, and container uses, while the [breeder’s color-class sheet](https://www.syngentaflowers.com/ams/sites/g/files/kgtney2381/files/file_field/import/field_media_link/sites/g/files/zhg721/f/gardenmumshadedprogram_0.pdf) places Jacqueline Pearl in the white class. ## Siting Choose a sunny site with moist, well-drained soil. Garden mums flower as days shorten, and planting early gives roots more time to establish before winter. Hardiness varies by cultivar and local conditions; the breeder’s product page does not list a zone for Pearl. ## Maintenance Water consistently during active growth while allowing excess water to drain. Pinch young shoots earlier in the season to encourage a rounded plant, stopping by midsummer so buds can form. Remove spent flowers to maintain a tidy display, and monitor for aphids, mites, leaf spots, and mildew.
