Chrysanthemum 'Yosun' SUNDORO plants should be watered regularly and deeply. The soil should be kept consistently moist but not soggy. Water when the top 1-2 inches of soil is dry. During the hottest part of summer, these plants may need to be watered every day. In the cooler months, water every other day or every 3-4 days depending on the speed of water absorption. Avoid over-watering as this can cause root-rot.

Chrysanthemum 'Yosun' SUNDORO grows best with an average of 8-10 hours of direct sunlight each day. This plant species should be placed in a location that receives bright, full sun during the morning and mid-day hours and some shade in the afternoon. It should not be grown in full shade or in a location that receives temperatures higher than 75°F. For optimal health and blooming, the plant should receive at least 6 hours of direct sunlight during the day and adequate water and regular fertilization.

Hardiness zone 5–9.

Chrysanthemum 'Yosun' SUNDORO should be pruned lightly once in early spring before the plant begins to produce new growth. This will help promote a dense, bushy shape. Pruning should be done in a way that maintains the plants natural shape and form. Remove any hardy stems or twigs that appear overly long or out of proportion. Depending on the plant's size, pruning can also be done in summer when spent flowers have dropped off. For larger mums, this summer trimming can be done 2 to 3 times during the summer months. This type of trimming encourages a more compact, tidy shape and encourages more blooms come fall.
