Mum!


Mums! This is the best part of Fall - okay, maybe not the best (mulled apple cider anyone?), but definitely in the top 3.  The only question is, which color to pick?

We tried white one year, but against the white house it just didn't show up from a distance.  Then we tried mauve.  It really looked washed out and sickly on the gray front porch.  I loved the rust, the burgundy, and mini daisy-like colors.  Orange was too marigold looking, chartreuse was neat, but it looked like weeds were overtaking the place.

What to choose?  What to choose?


Yellow!  Bright cheerful yellow.  It pops!  It cheers!  It embodies happiness!  
Sometimes it's good just to stick with the classics.
