Join me for an October walk through my garden as it quiets down and we look toward our first frost date. So much of the garden is going to bed, but I have the most SPECTACULAR heirloom chrysanthemums coming into their full glory! We’ll end the day by planting out our pre-sprouted ranunculus and anemones.
Wishing you a beautiful day in the garden,
Kate

Good morning! Your garden is beautiful and changed so much.The mums are so beautiful! How exciting. I buy mums in the fall and I love them. But I don’t plant them because I don’t have the room and I look at it as a bouquet ❤️♥️🌻 Will the frost get them before they get finished blooming? Thank you for sharing your garden.
Kate you have been
Holding out on the Mums ,it’s a little far for me this weekend to come to the show 😂🤣😂 3;000 miles……. I hope you film it. …..PLEASE and revisit yours in the garden GOOD JOB 💚. 🍁🍂
Those mums are amazing. Can you share their hardiness zones? Are they available commercially?
Good morning Kate, The heirloom mums are gorgeous❤️❤️❤️. Love that spider looking petals! They show so much interest! Have fun at the show this weekend 🍂
You & Laura from Garden Answer need to get together & talk heirloom mums. She bought a bunch of them this year.
They are beautiful 😍
Okay, you've finally sold me on Mums. Those are amazing!! And fall anemones. I saw a mass planting of them under a giant tree at Kew Gardens last month and am obsessed. Now i just have to find some in my area. Thanks for all the inspo, once again!
those mums are awesome. what is zone range/hardy? after cutting, will they continue to open? i got a lacy-ish, not spider, at trader joes last fall in pure white. it lasted 3 weeks in vase. i would love to grow this is zone 7 , east tn. i love where i live, but spent 60 + yrs in north seattle/edmonds. i've been everywhere you go and it is so nostalgic to visit again. thanks for yet more future dreams, and stirring up wonderful memories.
Good morning Kate, I hope I will see you at the mum show! Do you cover your mums for winter? When I have planted them, they tend not to come back. 😒your fan in Woodinville
Hello Kate! OMG those mums.❤️I’m from the Seattle area but now live in Cincinnati. I feel like I’m living in a perennial desert after living in the Pacific North West. Cincinnati is big on native plant societies which is great. The best thing is the long growing season. I guess that I would pick a longer growing season over unusual plant material. It’s a tuff one though.
I was hoping your were going to show us the heirloom moms! They are spectacular!
I think some purple heuchera would look beautiful in your front boarder. I can just imagine their leaf texture and color in contrast to your other plants. Your heirloom mums are so pretty. I hope you will give us another update as they continue to open.
I love a good tour ❤. I have perilla/shiso. It was the right wrong plant. I was looking for Korean perilla/Sesame plant to grow for a Korean friend last year and got the wrong perilla. But the purple shiso self seeded this year, and I left it in strategic locations. It's blooming now, so lovely! The dark foliage provides lovely contrast. My friend found the Korean perilla this year. Those mums! Oh my. Fantastic.
Good morning Kate. I love the African Blue Basil. Claudia grew the cutest little Turban(?) Pumpkins 😊 The Mums are so unique and beautiful. 😍 And your seedlings 🌱 are doing amazing. Thank you for sharing this with us. 😊
I just googlee the evergreen chrysanthemum society to see if there's a local show here in Vancouver BC. And discovered that the Seattle club originated here in Vancouver BC! And that the ECA was created because the Seattle chrysanthemum society couldn't agree on selection so the men created ECA and banned women, which only changed in the 1990s! Oh the drama 😂
Love them! I've never planted any of them before.
I’m growing Heirloom Mums for the first time this year in Michigan (6b). They’re fabulous and last forever in a vase. I only started cutting them as we’re due for a freeze any time now.
Amazing,amazing thanks for sharing and introducing to some amazing mums and your garden!
Nightingale is everything!
Disconso (not sure if that’s the spelling) looks like chihuly glass sculptures.
I love all the blooms on those!
Beautiful tour!
Hi Kate I so want
Perennial mums here in New
Hampshire zone 5B-6A. Yours are beautiful
Great video, it was so interesting , the mums are spectacular!! I never knew there were so many different varieties!❤
So fun Kate! And the mums are gorgeous!
Yes I think the very purple Heuchera would look great in your front border for sure!
Oh my gosh! Those new pumpkins – they immediately brought Squidward to mind…so now you have Patrick and Squidward…Sponge Bob will be sad!!! LOL
Oh my goodness, those mums are all so spectacular! Sometimes I wish I had more space than my little 20x35ft courtyard. I’m running out of room. Maybe I can squeeze some in next year when I start planning my little side yard. I’ll have an additional, 20x 30 ft area to plant. 🎉. You bring us the most interesting specimens! ❤❤❤
Looks lovely Kate 🥰 I have been adding more Heuchera’s they are definitely one of my favourites, especially when I use them in my pots and transfer to my garden 🥰
I think the Mum show this weekend is 10-4 daily. Last year was 11-3. Both shows come up in a search.
I love your mums. So yummy
The show was amazing! Not big, but the people were so informative and the varieties were so beautiful. Can't wait for the sale in April.
Thanks for the tour Katy, still looks great! My yard is all cut back and tucked in for winter. No snow yet but we know “ Winter is Comimg” zone3 Manitoba 🇨🇦🍁👏
Those evergreen mums are spectacular. Love the spidery one.
Extraordinary mums!
