Judy™ Bronze Chrysanthemum

Judy™ Bronze is a Syngenta garden mum with decorative flowers in orange and bronze tones. The breeder lists it as compact to medium in vigor, suited to full sun and container production; a grower catalog describes it as a late-season extender. ## Landscape Use Use Judy Bronze in a fall border, mass planting, or patio container to carry warm color later in the season. Its bronze-orange flowers combine well with deep red, yellow, and white mums. The [NC State Extension profile](https://plants.ces.ncsu.edu/plants/chrysanthemum-x-morifolium/common-name/mum/) also lists garden mums for borders, containers, and cut-flower gardens. ## Siting Choose a sunny site with fertile, well-drained soil. The breeder lists full sun and a compact-medium vigor rating, but its public product page does not provide mature dimensions or a hardiness range; those values remain unspecified here. Avoid waterlogged soil and allow air movement around the foliage. ## Maintenance Water regularly during active growth, especially when weather is dry. Pinch soft tips early to encourage branching, stopping by mid-summer so flower buds can develop. Remove spent blooms and watch for aphids, mites, rust, leaf spots, and powdery mildew.
