Syngenta Releases New Mums

Syngenta Flowers, Inc. has developed two new garden mum families and seven new individual garden mum varieties. These varieties will be unveiled at Cultivate’16 in Columbus, Ohio, July 9-12 and available for the 2017 season.

The new families are made up of complementary varieties with similar timing, habit, and flower form. They are also great for matching up colors whether it is blackcloth or natural season. Some stand-alone varieties can be combined with selected families to create an appealing color affect.

The mum families that will be on display at Cultivate are:

  • Nikki family of garden mums – Available in yellow, orange and dark pink, the Nikki family is new for 2017 and makes a tricolor combination that has shown tolerance to late-season frost.
  • Rhonda family of garden mums – This new family offers six bold colors and flowers later than any other mum in the current Syngenta assortment.
  • Milton family of pot mums – Available this year, the Milton family has two distinctive bicolor options.

To learn more about the new mums from Syngenta, visit the Syngenta Flowers, Home & Garden website or booth #2747 at Cultivate’16.
