Grow Your Own Stunning Fall Mums

Chrysanthemums, or mums, are a must-have for any fall garden, bringing rich color and texture to your space just as summer fades. At Green Willow Gardens, we specialize in cutting varieties perfect for floral design. Now, you can grow your own with our rooted mum cuttings, available in our shop!

Why Grow Your Own Mums?

  • Unique, Specialty Varieties – Unlike big-box store mums, our varieties are bred for tall, strong stems and multiple blooms per plant.

  • Long-Lasting Fall Flowers – With the right care, your mums will bloom from early to late fall.

  • Sustainable & Locally Grown – Our cuttings are produced from our on-farm stock, ensuring high quality and healthy plants.

How to Plant & Care for Your Mums

  • Planting: Mums should be planted after your last frost date in full sun. They thrive in the ground, raised beds, or containers (use a pot at least 12” deep).

  • Support: Since our cutting varieties grow 24”-36” tall, they need staking or netting for support.

  • Pinching for More Blooms: Regular pinching throughout the season encourages stronger plants and more stems. Stop pinching in early July to ensure a full fall bloom.

  • Harvesting: Cut stems deeply to promote regrowth, and enjoy multiple blooms per stem in your arrangements!
