Chrysanthemum 'Yogin' GINGER should be watered regularly, about once per week. Ensure that the soil is evenly moist, but not soggy before watering. If the top couple of inches of soil are dry, give the plant a thorough watering until the water comes out of the drainage holes in the bottom of the pot. Allow the water to sink in completely before the next watering. You may need to water more often during hot and dry weather, especially if the plant is in direct sunlight. In general, it is better to water thoroughly and less frequently than to lightly water daily.

Chrysanthemum 'Yogin' GINGER is an annual flowering plant that prefers full sun exposure for optimal blooming. This plant species should receive direct sunlight for at least 6 to 8 hours a day in order to bloom and thrive. This plant will benefit from being placed in a southeastern facing window, as it will receive morning sun followed by dappled light in the afternoon. For best results, it should be placed in a sunny spot with protected exposure to the elements, ideally exposed to direct sunlight from 10am to 4pm.

Chrysanthemum 'Yogin' GINGER should be pruned lightly in mid-spring and then lightly again in early to mid-summer. For the mid-spring pruning, remove any dead, damaged or weak-looking stems, leaving the healthiest stems to become the main structure of the plant. Remove any spent blooms from the summer pruning and help to keep the plant looking neat and tidy. As the chrysanthemum blooms in the fall, no additional pruning should be required.
