PINK FLAMINGO CHrysanthemum

Engineering profile of the 'Rozoviy Flamingo' cultivar

Developed by the Botanical Garden-Institute of the FEB RAS under the guidance of Alevtina Nedoluzhko, this chrysanthemum cultivar is engineered specifically for regions with challenging climatic cycles. It is a bushy, decorative type, optimized for durability and consistent performance in open soil.

Plant Architecture and Morphology

The plant exhibits a balanced growth habit with a height of 30–60 cm. This medium stature provides structural stability, effectively resisting wind and mechanical damage. The pompon-shaped blossoms, ranging from 5 to 10 cm in diameter, feature a dense petal arrangement that serves as a protective mechanism against moisture accumulation and structural deformation during the late-season bloom.

Phenology and Hardiness

A key technical advantage of this hybrid is its extended flowering duration, which exceeds 40 days. The physiological development of the plant allows for sequential blooming from September through November, significantly reducing the risk of total loss from early seasonal frosts. Furthermore, its high frost resistance ensures root system integrity, making it a reliable solution for outdoor cultivation in areas with significant temperature fluctuations. This cultivar represents a specialized balance between aesthetic pompon geometry and practical botanical resilience.
