The 'Makenzie™ White' Fall Garden Mum (Chrysanthemum morifolium) is a premium, late-season decorative mum variety bred by Syngenta Flowers. Known for its crisp, soft-white blooms, it features an exceptionally uniform, mounded-to-spherical growth habit with dense branching. This specific cultivar acts as a "late-season extender," meaning it provides fresh, bright color deep into autumn long after earlier varieties fade.
