Care of Chrysanthemums 
Hardy Mums are very easy to grow. Small plants set out in the spring will become 
large blooming plants 1% to 2 feet across. 
Mums do the best in full sunlight, but may be planted where they get three or four 
hours of shade. 
Pinching out the tips of taller varieties to encourage branching should be done 
several times—until July 15th. The pinching makes the plants sturdy and bushy. 
During the summer the soil around Mums should be cultivated regularly to keep 
weeds down and to maintain moisture. A well-balanced commercial fertilizer should be 
applied two or three times during the summer. The plants should be watered well after 
fertilizing. 
Use all-purpose dust occasionally to control insects and foliage diseases. 
Mums can be planted at almost any time during spring, summer, or early fall. They 
can be moved in full bloom to plant in window boxes, or in borders where flowers are 
needed. One can have a new border overnight by replacing old flowers with fresh bloom- 
ing Mums. 
Chrysanthemums may be selected from colored pictures at the Nursery.
