Plant Features

Ice Pink Igloo mum is a perennial with lively pink decorative flowers that begin blooming in September in the first year and August or earlier in subsequent years. These mums have a uniform mounding habit and attractive lobed green leaves that form a uniform, rounded mass without the need for pinching. They are winter hardy down to zone 5 and are excellent in mass plantings and mixed borders, providing much-needed color until frost. These mums have a domed habit with a height of up to 2 feet and a width of 2.5 feet and offer outstanding flower power in the late summer or early fall, making them perfect for adding color to a perennial border or a large container. They have very uniform flowering and form beautiful ball-shaped habits.
