Re: mums


I bought twelve tiny pots of mums at Wal Mart late last fall when everything
was either dying out or sold out.  They were cheap, cheap.  I planted them
the only place I had, rocky, dry, soil in full sun, and they grew and
bloomed beautifully.  They are all back again this spring, two varieties
much hardier than the others, but they all grew.  I do water them every now
and then.   It is beginner's luck, in my case.  We'll just see if they
decide to flower this fall.  Now if I could only get my columbines to
grow...
