Flora and Fauna Friday: The Football Mum

Nothing says "Welcome Fall" like a blooming pot of mums! You know the kind that are so inviting on your front porch? I love those.

The football mum (the most spectacular mum of all, imho) is a fairly popular pick for florists. It comes in a range of colors, which makes it perfect to use year round, especially when you really need to find that one dark red/orange/fall color, as I've experienced lately. 

The football mum is versatile, pairs well with other flowers, or shines on its own. It's a great substitute for the short-lived dahlia, or even peony.
