Nikki™ Dark Pink Chrysanthemum

Nikki™ Dark Pink is a fall-flowering garden mum in Syngenta’s Nikki family, identified as *Chrysanthemum morifolium*, product 70067025. Syngenta lists medium-vigorous growth, full sun, larger container use, and purple/dark-pink color ([Syngenta Flowers](https://www.syngentaflowers.com/ams/product/flower/70067025)). ## Flowers and placement The breeder notes that Nikki’s colors and vigor suit large mixed-color pots and lists medium or large pots as recommended sizes. Its profile gives fall as the flowering season but does not list a hardiness zone, so outdoor winter survival is not established. Use it as a seasonal focal point in a sunny border or container. ## Growing conditions Give the plant a warm, sheltered, sunny position in fertile soil or potting medium that stays evenly moist and drains well. General [RHS chrysanthemum guidance](https://www.rhs.org.uk/plants/chrysanthemum/growing-guide) recommends regular watering and avoiding waterlogged compost. Syngenta notes the family dislikes high night temperatures in commercial black-cloth production; that production observation should not be treated as a home-garden care threshold. ## Maintenance Water during dry weather, especially in containers, and remove spent flowers to tidy the display. Protect potted plants if frost threatens. Pinch only young, actively growing plants when a bushier shape is desired; leave a finished flowering mum intact.
