Everyone's fall favorite!

Chrysanthemums, or mums, are large, sturdy fall flowers that grow in a dome shape and bloom during September and October with hundred of flowers, typically completely covering the plants foliage. Use mums as pot fillers, porch decor, or directly in the ground as bedding color. Mums need FULL SUN (at least 6 hours per day) in order to be floriferous.

About BloomBox™ Mums:
BloomBox mums are grown locally by Quality Greenhouses in Dillsburg PA. They are grown in 2 gallon pots*. You can expect them to be well-rooted when they arrive, and they are typically delivered with tight or loose green buds. Please note: mum's blooms last for several weeks. The current crop of mums are early-season mums and will bloom from early to late September.  To view these mum's current stage, please refer to last photo. The width of the top of our mums typically grows to about 18".

Although BloomBox sells mums as annuals, they are actually a perennial and often times come back when planted into the ground. If planting into the ground, be sure to trim mums next year as they emerge in late May and early July for optimal growth. Please note, we do not guarantee that mums will return in the spring and they should be treated as annuals in zones less than 7. 

*These are "trade" two gallon pots. Actual size may slightly vary depending on growers.
