Complete Fall Mums Bloom Care Guide- Mums That Keep On Giving 

Clearance flowers for the win!

Thanks! Well Azalias, blueberries etc love high acidity soil. Mums like lightly acidic bordering neutral. Try out that. Also check out my other 2 mums videos for any additional info. It should be down in description

Don’t know your location but mums are pretty hardy as plants, here in Williamsburg, VA. Belgium mums are the only reliably perennial mums I know, but regular mums have come back for me too. So, pot or ground, after they bloom, you can leave the stalks until spring or cut them off, right then in the fall. Then, in the spring, look for a tiny bit of green at the base. That means the plant is alive. Cut off the dead parts if you didn’t do this after they died the previous year, and add a bit of good soil to the base. I don’t put them in pots, but I would imagine it is the same process, although the soil might be a bit tired. If you see some of those green sprigs, don’t hesitate to dig them up, or take them out of the pot, and either replant them, or put them in the ground. These can be little pieces, really, but these things grow into big plants. You can move these little pieces outside, and replant them in a more pleasing arrangement, if they have grown where you don’t want them. They don’t look it, but those small pieces have a lot of life in them and will grow into gorgeous plants. My next must do, I learned the hard way. When they come back, they will look pretty good, with buds on them by June or so. But, in order for them to have sturdy stems in the autumn, and not fall over from the weight of the blooms, they must be cut back. Safe to do this any time, but before about July 4. If you cut them back after, you may not give them time to set new blooms. So cut them back by at least a third to a half. This is hard for me to do, because they look so good! But, the effect in the fall will be well worth it. As they age, three or four years old, they tend to grow roots outward, away from the original plant. My solution is to dig the whole thing up in the spring, reassemble the small pieces in my own pattern and cover them with new soil. And, I have even replanted those small pieces in new areas and gotten completely new and lovely plants. When I buy mums now, and I don’t have to buy many, I treat them as perennials, even if they are in pots on my steps. I know I will eventually be putting them in the ground. Not having to buy new mums and then just throw them away is a joy.

No problemo! Don't forget to checkout my Mums playlist. Checkout Chrysanthemum Care: ru-vid.com/group/PL4dHk2fV8d_ZB_mu9UCLLgcpRkSAB_1Y-

It can become an obsession especially with clearance mums from Lowes!🤣

Yyaaazzzz! That's awesome!

Yep granular fertilizer helps for long term for regular feeding but it's generally not really enough for the amount of blooms we want so we go to liquid too😉🌻
