| I've been finding a lot of mum seedlings this year. They're definitely seedlings and not simply runners from the mother plant. It makes sense since I didn't cut any of them back last fall including the spent flowers.
Has anyone had the same thing happen and allowed the babes to mature and bloom? Worth the effort or not? Kevin |

| Congratulations, I have never had that happen, despite always leaving the plants intact over the winter. I guess it is a question of how much effort it would be? If you have the space to let them grow to flowering size where they are, and you could use more mums, it would at the least be a fun experiment. |
