Mums

I watered them right after they arrived and they really perked up. Now they are growing beautifully!

Autumn Fire Perennial Mum Plant

Beautiful Plant and I love the packaging you have on getting them to me

Autumn Fire Perennial Chrysanthemum

These plants sure are full with lots of large leaves. I look forward to seeing their beautiful bright orange blooms to contrast the pretty white ones we also received.

Very Pleased with Purchase

I purchase these Autumn Fire Perennial Mums this past spring, but waited until they bloomed this fall to write a review. All the plants I ordered were remarkably packaged for shipment and received in excellent condition. The color of the blossoms are unique, and the size of them are quite large. I could never find anything at my local nursery that would compare in size or color to the Mums I ordered from GrowJoy. I am very pleased with my purchase.

Autumn Fire Perennial Mums

These Mums look great and this is the 2nd time I have ordered them and they always come back bigger and better each year, so will definitely be adding more each year. Much better than planting them in the fall and a much better variety.

Mums the word!

This was just one of 6 plants I ordered. They arrived in absolute perfect condition. They are healthy and robust. They never missed a beat when transplanted and only after one week I can see new growth. I can't imagine ordering Mums from anyone else.

From Nancy | June 01, 2015


Maybe next time

Unfortunately the Autumn Fire was not in stock so I did not get it. I would love to have this mum.

healhty Mum plant

My order came very quickly and the Autumn Fire plants were packaged very good and looked very healthy. They seem to have adapted very well!

Growing still

I got these 2-3 weeks ago, and they are still growing healthy and looking good in their pots. We are in a terrible drought now, but I water every morning before work.
