Chrysanthemum ‘Cheryl Pink’ is a hardy garden mum featuring profuse sprays of lavender-pink, double flowers, 2 in. across (5 cm), adorned with darker centers. Blooming in the fall, the multibranched stems are covered with flowers which stand out against the dark green foliage. This perennial forms a compact, bushy mound. Easy to grow, it is an excellent choice for sunny borders or containers. Ideal to brighten the fall garden!

  • Grows up to 6-16 in. tall (15-40 cm) and 10-18 in. wide (25-45 cm)
  • Best flowering occurs in full sun in fertile, well-drained soils enriched with organic matter and general-purpose fertilizer. Water freely in dry weather. Plant in a sheltered location to protect your Chrysanthemum from strong winds.
  • Pinch out the growing tip when the plants are 6-8 in. tall (15-20 cm) to encourage free-flowering, bushy plants. Cut back to near ground level in the fall.
  • Toxic to dogs, toxic to cats, toxic to horses.
