Garvan Mums
October 2007

Audio/Video Script:

Mums the word here at Garvan Woodland Gardens in Hot Springs. There are over 7200 different garden mums planted here in the gardens for the month of October. So come down and enjoy them.

If you are growing mums at home in your home garden they can actually be annuals or perennials. They come in a wide range of colors and sizes and can last throughout the season if you choose them well. Look for varieties that have plenty of color but still lots of tight buds that will last longer. If you choose a variety that is fully open you’re not going to have it last more than a couple of weeks.

Whether you are growing your mums as an annual or perennial, they can give you an abundance of color in the fall landscape. And don’t forget to visit Garvan Woodland Gardens in the month of October to see a glorious display of fall garden mums. For more information, visit their website at: http://www.garvangardens.org
