Volunteer mums growing!

Posted by soinspired 6 (Central IN) (My Page) on

Last fall, I planted a beautiful mum into a large oblong galvanized tub. I have never had luck with mums in the past, but this one caught my eye as it was loaded with a couple hundred yellow/orange blooms. I am astonished as I now have a hundred or more seedlings that are two or more inches tall. I did nothing with this mum in the fall or during the winter. I am going to start trying to transplant some into small pots and put in my potting shed under some grow lights to see if I can maintain them into adult plants for the fall. Any recommendations on my good fortune? Thank you!

I suggest you go ahead & transplant volunteers BUT consider growing them outside where they can grow/mature in natural environment.
