Good tips for keeping your mums looking good all fall.
Have you bought mums yet? Keep your fall mums alive and looking amazing with these tips!
🔸If you need instant impact, then choose a plant in full flower. To extend the display period, select plants that have tight flower buds with just a little bit of color showing. Over time, the buds will open up, making the flowers last longer.
🔸Always keep your fall mums in full sun. This promotes the very best flower opening and color development.
🔸Keep your mums consistently watered. This is a greater challenge when growing your mums in containers. If the soil is dry, it’s time to water your mums. Do not let them wilt. Once a flowering fall mum is water-stressed, it turns off flowering. This doesn’t necessarily kill the plant, but the flowering will not recover.
🔸Don’t water the foliage, but direct water to the base of the plant and continue until water starts to flow from the bottom of the container. Wet leaves make it easy for fungal growth to set in, making plants look bad.
Set up and ready to sell this morning at the Jacksonville Farmers Market at Pathway Plaza in Jacksonville, Illinois. We will be here from 7am-12:00pm
Also open in Virginia today 2pm-5pm.
