WARM SHADES FOR COOL DISPLAYS

TRICOLOR MUM IN 9IN

At the farm one day and at the store the next—that’s our Market Fresh Mums! They look their best and last a long time because they’re delivered fresh from farm to store. Plants are nice and full, with traditional tight pom pom style blooms in the classic dome-shaped habit. Our Tricolor Mum offers a special look for the season, mixing three popular autumn shades in one pot. Choose from four different color combinations to make fall decorating a breeze. These beautiful Mums come in the 9IN size to create an eye-catching centerpiece or fall display. Plant them in a whiskey barrel for a splash of brilliant color alongside hay bales. Go simple and fill a sleek modern planter or interesting old urn as the sole decoration on the porch. For a classic fun vibe set your Combo Mums in a rustic wheel barrow or vintage Radio Flyer® next to your favorite scarecrow!

ASTER IN 9IN

For a mum-like look in bright blue or bright pink go with beautiful Aster. This New England native does a much better job of delivering these two non-traditional fall colors while keeping the traditional mum shape and texture. Versatile Aster can be used like a mum in all your décor applications, as-is in its pot on the porch, worked into fall combinations and displays, or planted in garden beds with mums, kales, and cabbages. It’s very hardy! Use Aster to add a cool, unexpected pop among the typical warm gold, orange, and red tones of the season. You can even let it go to seed as an oil-rich snack for the songbirds.

SOLID COLOR MUM IN 8IN

Choose from a range of solid autumn colors with traditional tight pom pom style flowers. Bright, full plants are brimming with blooms in the classic dome-shaped habit. Market Fresh Mums are great for filling rustic whiskey barrels, wagons, or wheelbarrows. Solid colors also work well with modern, upscale décor as a monochromatic white arrangement in a sleek black urn, or as a standout splash of brilliant color in a minimalist porch display. Our Market Fresh Mums are hardy so when you plant them in the garden they return the following year. Use them to color up late summer bare spots in full sun areas of beds and borders as you transition to fall.

PENNISETUM RUBRUM IN 8IN

For vertical interest we are shipping Pennisetum rubrum, or purple fountain grass as it’s more commonly known. Soft, fluffy purple plumes nod in the breeze, arching upward and outward from a clump of burgundy-red foliage. While the narrow leaves grow about knee-high, the flower stalks reach a bit higher at around four feet. This plant truly looks like water spraying from a fountain and makes a great accent in the fall garden. It adds drama to beds and borders, especially when grown in clusters, mass plantings, or along slopes in areas protected from strong winds. In a planter purple fountain grass makes a nice alternative to hay bales that are so popular this time of year.
