🌱 Plant Care Tips:

Light:
Garden mums love the sun! Plant them in a location that gets at least 6 hours of direct sunlight daily for best blooming.

Watering:
Keep the soil consistently moist but not soggy. Water thoroughly when the top inch of soil feels dry. Avoid letting them dry out, especially in containers.

Soil:
Well-drained soil is key. Amend heavy soils with compost or potting mix to improve drainage.

Temperature:
Ideal for cooler fall weather. Mums can handle light frosts but may not survive a hard freeze unless planted early and well-established.

Deadheading:
Remove spent blooms to encourage new flowers and extend the blooming season.

Fertilizing:
Not necessary during fall bloom season, but if planted in spring or summer, apply a balanced fertilizer every 2-4 weeks.

Overwintering (Optional):
In zones 5–9, mums can return next year if planted in the ground early enough to establish roots before the first hard frost.
