Get Ready for Fall with Mums

Start transitioning your garden from summer to fall with this garden classic, the chrysanthemum. Also known as a mum, this cheerful button-shaped flower is a fall show-stopper that will instantly fill your garden and containers with fall color.

This fall favorite blooms as early as August and thrives in September and October when temperatures are cooler. Now is the perfect time to pick up 9” mums from your local Lunds & Byerlys to add to your containers and garden beds.

Mums come in a variety of warm fall colors from the classic yellow to bronze, red, orange, white, and purple. These bold blooms add an instant pop of color on the porch, patio, or deck. Mums are great to add to mixed containers as a filler or for seasonal interest.

Tips for Long Lasting Blooms

– Place containers with mums in a spot that will get full sun, at least 6 hours a day.  
– Extend the life of your blooms by removing dead flowers as needed.
– Water when the soil is dry to the touch.
– Avoid watering the leaves and flowers to prevent disease.
