    This video is so on time, I was just telling my husband yesterday that I didn't want to put mums in the new garden, but you have made a great case for the MUMS! Repelling ticks, making a wonderful cut flower, getting 3 bloom cycles, and being able to divide them. Whew girl you SAVED the MUMS in my garden. Thank you for sharing and your hair looks great and so does the smile.

    Thank you for taking the time to describe the year-long process of keeping mums! Like you said, most people discount mum and almost talk about them like they are "trash flowers." I love them and have always wanted to know about growing them throughout the year! From a fellow Texan, thank you!

    Amazing! I learned so much about mums from you today. Thanks for sharing with us. I'll be adding more of them to my garden along with my endless supply of zinnias. Your hair looks beautiful today. I think I identify more with your other gardening " hot mess look." I pretty much look like a trainwreck when I garden, as well. After all, it's all about how the gardens look, not us. Enjoy your cooler weather because summer is on it's way back for us zone 8b and 9 Texans.

    I do enjoy this video. I have watched it again to brush up on my mum facts. I try to get at least two bloom cycles per year. I'm not wasting time pinching off buds.
    You looked very nice in this video. I garden in southeastern NC, zone 8a. The heat and humidity are super high during the summer. I come in drenched in sweat, and I am the poster girl for a HOT mess!

    Once again I'm going to mention my daughter's garden in comparison to yours, bcuz she lives in Rockwall, which is just a hop, skip, and a jump away from you.
    So y'all have the same soil. These past few years she and I have been trying out different plants in her front garden just to see what works. I think I may have previously talked about how the plant Cat's Pajamas just never liked her garden, which was surprising.
    However-
    Low and behold, the MUMS are a shining star at her house too!!
    We couldn't be happier to have them flourishing in that calichè clay y'all garden with!!
    Hers have given her multiple bloom cycles too, with hardly any care, just a few times of deadheading, and VOILA!!
    BLOOM CITY!!!
    Yours are just BEAUTIFUL!!!
    You always do such a fantastic job with your gardens, it's a pleasure to watch all your videos!!
    Happy Fall to you!
    Altho I live 200 miles South of you, we all agree, the weather right now IS magnificent!!!
    Personally, I've been waiting for MONTHS for this weather!!!
    Let's hope it lasts this way thru April - OR EVEN LONGER!! ha!

    Mums were one of my very first plants I bought when I started gardening. I had no idea what I was doing so I was pretty sad when I didn’t care for them as I should and they died before the fall season was over. I didn’t give up though. This is my second year and I am happy to say that with a little bit of research I have successfully maintained all 6 of my mums this year. I’m in zone 9b where the beginning of fall is still hot in the high 90°’s so I made sure to water them everyday so they wouldn’t wilt and die on me. Thank you for encouraging us beginning gardener’s. We truly appreciate you putting out this information for us.

    I had been plucking buds all summer bc I was led to believe if I didn't I wouldn't have flowers in fall. They looked leggy and awful then a spell of rain three days long killed them. I have clay soil too and am in zone 7b. I'm going to follow your advice from now on!

    Your hair looked really pretty. I garden in zone 8a also, coastal southeastern NC. When l am work in my yard, it is HOT and I am a MESS. I am usually filthy, but the flowers do not care that l’m dirty and my hair is sticking out every which way.

    I love how showy my ground planted mums look. I have had the same red mums for 4 years. I just planted some pink mums to fill a hole in my flower bed. I planted yellow mums from 50cent clearance and they are huge and beautiful yellow in my purple yellow and pink garden. Girl I miss my Texas flowers. Living in Ky now. BUT I did find a Mexican Bush sage plant and so far its doing great. I miss the Texas Sage Shrubs I had, and my Sweet Olive Shrubs and Oleanders.

    I Just started doing a whole lot of container planting Last year when we bought our home and II have containers that I plant in the Spring, containers that I plant in the summer, and containers i plant in the fall. One reason for this is because sometimes the summer containers are still looking good and I don't wanna pull them out yet, to plant things for fall and then have a few weeks of not a lot of xolor while the fall ones are bulking up, another reason is so that in the fall, my fault containers can stay on my porch looking good and I can go ahead & plant bulbs for early spring color in another set of containers, issued of having to pull the pants early or have to be put in the freezing cold planting bulbs! 😄 But all that to say planted mums for the 1st time last year and left them in the containers all Winter and noticed in the Spring that they were starting to flush out with fresh growth So I just left them in the containers beside my garage and I didn't have to buy that many plants for my fall containers this year!

    How do you know if they're hardy mums? I heard you say, maybe earlier this year about your mums blooming more than once, so I let mine grow without cutting them back but they didn't start blooming until August.(I'm in zone 7, Maryland)
    That's fine but curious if that means they aren't "hardy mums."
    The other mums I have I transplanted so I deliberately cut them back and they're blooming now.
    I have to say this was a heartwarming and laugh out loud video towards the end. Your openness and enthusiasm about your hair, and getting out of quarantine, enjoying be outside and "hiding out" from your family, and normal things like the mailman driving by, I just loved it.
    Thanks for the mum info!!

    Thanks for disclosing that you don't garden in full regalia. I also become a hot mess in 8b Austin, TX, and I hate having moisturizer, sunscreen, or anything else like sweat flow into my eyes when I garden. Laura from GA gardens in low humidity so her hair remains fresh and bouncy. Not mine. My clothes are strictly segregated from anything that looks respectable because dirt seems magnetically attracted to me and everything I am wearing. I end up looking like a kid who has been playing in the mud, and I am happy.
