Decorating with Mums: A Seasonal Touch for Your Home
This weekend, we visited the local farmers market, and it was a beautiful experience. The vibrant colors of fall mums caught our eye, making them the perfect addition to any home decor. Mums come in a variety of shades—rich yellows, deep reds, and warm oranges—that can instantly brighten your porch or indoor spaces. Whether placed in decorative pots or as part of a fall display with pumpkins, they bring an undeniable charm and seasonal warmth to your home.
Shopping local for our flowers and plants, like these beautiful mums, supports our community farmers. Not only do you get fresher, healthier plants, but you also contribute to sustaining small, family-owned businesses. It’s a win-win: your home looks beautiful, and you’re helping local agriculture thrive. So next time you're sprucing up your space for fall, consider shopping local—your home and community will thank you!
Mums are hardy and beautiful, but to keep them vibrant all season long, a little care goes a long way. First, be sure to plant them in well-drained soil, whether in pots or garden beds, to avoid root rot. Mums love sunlight, so placing them in a spot where they get at least six hours of sun daily will help them thrive. If you're using mums indoors, make sure they get enough light through windows.
Watering mums regularly is essential. They prefer to stay moist, but not soaked, so aim to water when the top inch of soil feels dry. Deadheading spent blooms also encourages new growth and extends their blooming period. If you're planting mums in the ground, consider adding mulch around the base to protect the roots from temperature changes, especially as we approach colder months. With these simple care steps, your mums will flourish throughout the season!
