odder yet, mine do fabulously well the following year (if they survive at

THEN they disappear. Ingrid

Hey Ingrid, That's exactly what happened to ours! It bloomed
(sparsely) the next year then bit the dust, just like my poinsettia.
When taken from an ideal greenhouse environment, they just barely
thrive.

My dad in law could grow mums "football" real well in his sandy soil.
This was in N. Jersey Langhurst close to the oceaan. We can't do it
and treat them like annuals.
The local mums that are dug around here seem to not be perennial yet
the same folks have them up for sale every fall. I got to stop in some
time and ask what the secret is. I'll offer a Japanese maple to loosen
their tongues )
