Bloom Period: Mid to Late Season Bloomer
UK Classification: 11A – Large Spider Mum
Plant Height: Tall
 
Let's celebrate Pantones 2025 Color of the Year! Reminds me of a warm mocha, this fashionable spider mum gives dusty mauve petals tipped in burgundy. A color that's just hard to describe and unique in the garden. With long, tubular petals & graceful form, 'Mocha' is like a warm hug on a brisk fall morning, and a stunning cut-flower. Best grown as a disbud for competition-worthy blooms. Pro-tip: if you nip out the top bud it will encourage the plant to grow sprays of smaller blooms. Mocha is great for adding interest for floristry work. They can be picked at cracking bud stage, adding texture & interest to bouquets without being too much. She can be a little wild so trellising and pinching in late May are necessary.
