ChrysantheMUMS

I was delighted when I saw those potted mums on sale at Costco. I was really waiting for their big variety of mums in very special planter or ceramic pots. First thought they were planted on ceramic pots but they are sturdy plastic I think. Anyway, my husband loves mums and he likes the copper colored mums.
There are only few colors to choose from such as bright yellow, orange, red almost like maroon in its  color intensity. There is that light pink color turned out to be purple or lilac. Wouldn't it be nice if they have violet mums? The price of the potted mums are very affordable. Well, only at Costco where the price of mums are economically inexpensive! It's costly in other stores and flower shop. We bought three variety of mums because we love to appreciate the beauty of these plants and flowers.

 Maroon-red mums

 Bright yellow colored mums and  Orange (copper) mums

 This very special variety of mums are the best I think when it comes to color,
this plant blooms so much flowers, more than a thousand in just one week. I missed these mums from the previous house we lived at before, hopefully the new owner is taking good care of  our precious mums.

 Peach-salmon colored mums

 Yellow- orange colored mums only to change its colors in few days because of the weather, climate and how those insects propagate and pollinate them.


I think this variety of mums is the same with the first potted mums above. Its color and hue not changing no matter how many insects surrounded them. My daughter and I placed the dragonfly on top of the flowers for our photography.
