Mum-ma mia!by Tara Nolan |
I can’t take credit for planting them, but I love the dependable, gorgeous colours my chrysanthemums bring to the yard each fall – white, pink, yellow, orange. Still covered in bees, these are not delicate flowers. The frosty temperatures we had last week didn’t harm their little faces at all! I haven’t done it yet this year, but I love to snip a short stem full of blooms and place them in water, low to the vase. It’s like a ready-made, elegant bouquet! Just make sure they aren’t covered in little bugs. I made that mistake last year!
