Using Hardy Mums in Window Boxes: Division, Winter Care, and Display Ideas

Division Not Possible First Year

Each pot typically contains one plant. You can't divide them this year. If they survive winter, divide next spring.

Winter Survival Tips

• Don't cut back foliage until spring.
• Water weekly through November and December if no rain.
• "Hardy" means they tolerate light frosts, not necessarily winter survival.

Display Ideas

Plant one mum per box center; fill sides with twigs, dried grasses, gourds. Or combine in a basket for a front-door arrangement.
