• Very early natural flowering variety that blooms with or shortly after Tanya ™ Yellow in late August. • Excellent option in 3 qt. pots for natural season growers who find Tanya ™ Yellow can get too big. • Similar flowering response as Sunrise Yellow and Cruise Yellow—with a darker yellow color and a bit more size than Sunrise and a more refined plant habit than Cruise.
• Midseason natural flowering variety with similar timing and longevity as Adriana ™ Purple, but with a larger finished plant size. • Flowers with the Beverly ™ Family for growers in the Mid, South, and Deep South—but ends up slower in the North due to less sensitivity to cold nights and early flower initiation. • Similar flowering response as Poppin Purple and Zaza Purple, with increased strength and longer lasting color than both.

West Coast defined as areas with consistently cool night temperatures during June/July/August to cause flower initiation regardless of the natural photoperiod. Response listed is for plants between stage 2 and 3. Plan to ship about 1 week earlier. Groups listed in order of vigor from most compact to most vigorous and then daisies.
View our full Garden Mums At-a-Glance Table online at syngentaflowers-us.com/mums
* Garden mums can be adjusted to fit most any pot size by changing the number of long days before blackcloth. Groups listed in order of vigor from most compact to most vigorous and then the daises. Hailey ™ and Adriana ™ do not work well in hanging baskets—use Mila ™ Red with the Gigi ™ family for these pots.
KEY:
Best with a net in large containers For late season crops only For early season crops only
Will likely flower a bit slower than the rest of the varieties in this group Will likely need additional growth regulators than other varieties in this group Likely need fewer growth regulators than other varieties in this group

What is the Flowering Response?
In all of our variety charts and technical tables, Syngenta Flowers notes a flowering response for each garden mum variety. These weeks or timing suggestions for blackcloth and natural season production have been collected from extensive trialing over many years throughout the United Starts and Canada. We use Stage 2 as our official flowering date, as shown in the photo below on the right. Most wholesale growers would consider this stage too advanced or open for retail, and prefer to ship mums when “cracking color”, or at Stage 1 as shown in the photo to the left. This timing can be achieved by planning the production finish date 7–10 days prior to our posted flowering response date for the variety.
Flowering Response Information To help fine tune the varietal differences to night temperature and natural daylength, we have redefined the regions within our North American technical information.
North Areas with long natural daylengths in July and August, and cool night temperatures that cause flower initiation before the critical photoperiod is reached.
West Coast & California West Coast and High Altitude: Areas with night temperatures that are consistently at or below 60 °F during June, July, and August create flower bud initiation even under the longest days of the year. Flowering will occur 7, 8, 9, or 10 weeks after exposure to the cold night temperatures, depending on the variety and time of year. Flowering response is faster for September and October ship weeks than it is for July and August ship weeks.
STAGE 2
STAGE 1
Mid Areas with long natural daylengths in July and August, and warm night temperatures, where flower initiation is caused when critical photoperiod has been reached. This is unlike the North where initiation can occur earlier than by photoperiod alone.
"Crack Color Week"
"Response Week"
South Areas with shorter natural daylengths in July and August, and warm night temperatures where flower initiation occurs with the critical photoperiod but is reached sooner than in the North and Mid regions. Some varieties that are sensitive to high night temperatures will not initiate exactly when the critical photoperiod is reached.

Asters
Asters are a great companion crop to grow along with your garden mums but have some key differences. Asters have a very fast response time once their critical photoperiod has been reached. This means they need more long day weeks and fewer short day weeks when grown as a blackcloth crop. Asters also tend to be in flower in late August and September and will need daylength manipulation for fresh flowers in October. Asters are very tolerant of high night temperatures and will come into flower faster in the South due to shorter daylengths. Late September flowering aster crops in the South will need manipulation to delay flowering. The listed flowering response for asters is based on a plant with some partially open flowers. To ship plants with only colored buds, plan to ship approximately one week earlier than the listed response.
See additional cultural details for aster scheduling and growing tips from our online technical library.
