Well I certainly did not think finding any Mums for my front door would be such an ordeal.    I went to my local nursery and they were in 3″ pots and looked sad and miserable.

I found HUGE ones at Smart and Final but there were no blooms on the plant.  I really know nothing about plants, especially Mums.    I was afraid if I spent $18 bucks on that huge plant and then discovered they never bloomed I would feel stupid.

Was it really that hard to find a plant.

I guess so.

I decided to check out my local Wal-Mart’s garden center and lo and behold.  $5.oo buckets of mums.

Were they they best out there….no,  but they were bright and sunny.

At Michael’s Crafts I found these cute olive buckets and thought it would make the plants look better than the regular old pot.

I like how they look.   Very pretty and not a huge investment of money.

Please remind me to water them.
