Water: Mums 'Cheryl Jolly Red' prefers consistent moisture, necessitating regular watering during spring, summer, and fall. Water the root zone to a depth of 15-20 cm (6-8 in) in the morning, avoiding foliage. No water is needed when soil is frozen in late fall or winter.
Fertilize: The growth period for mums 'Cheryl Jolly Red' occurs primarily in spring and early summer. Applying water-soluble fertilizer (N-P-K 20-20-20 or 15-15-15) bi-monthly until buds appear promotes flowering. If using slow-release fertilizer, apply a compound fertilizer (12-6-6) every three months.
Pruning: Mums 'Cheryl Jolly Red' features vibrant red blooms and thrives with strategic pruning. Optimal timing is early to late spring. Techniques like deadheading and cutting back promote dense foliage, prolong blooming, and enhance air circulation, leading to a healthier display and reduced disease risk.
