Perhaps ‘pink daisy’ mammoth mum?

Thanks! Never heard of mammoth mums, but I think you’re right.

mums root very easily ... and you might be able to take a few cuttings.. and root them.. and mess with them thru winter .... and then propagate them again in late winter.. and have a few ready to go out in spring.. if you want a fail safe ...

they might not be pretty over wintering in the house.. but they arent that hard to do ...

ps: that michigan bulb link above ... research reviews if you think about ordering from them ...

I envy you-mums are eradicated by deer in S.W. PA., so sadly, no more mums here! Yours are absolutely stunning!

Wow! What a show.

Was the plant you bought in the spring something they were selling that spring for planting and just lost its label, or were they leftovers that might have bloomed already for easter and were on clearance for that? Just wondering since the easter leftovers usually aren't hardy.

I bought it in early or mid April. It was with the plants that looked like they were left over and left out of the greenhouse from last year - hydrangeas with one branch, a lot of little things with brown or no leaves. The price was right. I think $1.99. I thought it was a mum from the little green it had, but I didn’t see any other mums there this summer. They have the regular mums that you can get at Home Depot now, but I’m going to see if they will order some of these mammoth mums for me next spring, I know they will special order hydrangeas and Japanese maples. I would love a couple of the red mammoths.

I still can't believe you bought it this year as toddler--nay, an infant. It's like some kind of glorious mutant mum. That's HUGE growth in such a short time!

wow. Very pretty
