Easy Like Sunday Morning . . .Category: The Daytime of Life | Posted: Sun Oct 21, 2007 1:31 pmI love my weekends, and love the fall of the year . . . These are my newest girls . . . They looked sort of pitiful until the weather cooled down a little . . . I also have been watering them about once a week. . . (We are in a drought situation here.) I had to go out of town on business this week, and we had a little rain while I was gone . . . I was so pleased to go out back, and visit with them when I returned. I love to pinch . . . pinch . . . pinch them, and deadhead them also!!! 
Would you like to know a little more about caring for mums in an enjoyable way? (My mom is gone on to Our Maker.) I learned from reading a short story back in my college American Literature class. It is "Chrysanthamums," by John Steinbeck. It is a wonderful short story, and has some good tips for caring for mums in it. It was written in 1938, and takes place in the Salinas Valley in California. I also think we gardners can also relate to the woman in the story as it goes along.

Mums are such cheery flowers to have in the garden during autumn as they really brighten the place up don't they?
Yes . . . and are so easy to care for . . . I do worry about them weatheringing through the winter though . . . Will they survive if if cover them good with pinestraw,perhaps??? Login or register to leave a comment. |
