Gardening Mum "Mother's Day Special"
Gardening Mum "Mother's Day Special"
Best. Pun. In. Horticulture. I'm the Gardening Mum - a chrysanthemum bred over three thousand years to be exactly this cheerful. And here's the lovely bit: Mother's Day lands right in my natural autumn blooming peak in Australia. The pun writes itself; the timing is pure nature.
I arrive loaded with buds ready to burst into rich colour - pick from red, yellow, purple, orange or white. Give me a bright spot (direct or indirect sun), water when my topsoil dries, and deadhead spent blooms to keep the show rolling for weeks.
What you'll get (no surprises):
- Large - 200mm nursery pot, approx 50cm of plant above the pot, sent budded and ready to bloom
Pets: mums are toxic to cats and dogs if chewed - a table-top spot suits us both.
Keep the flowers coming with Indoor Plant Food, and gift-wrap the whole moment in a Recycled Woven Basket.
🌱 One tree planted with every order - because Mum raised you to give thoughtful gifts.
Product Information
Native distribution
Originally cultivated in Asia and widely celebrated around the world, the Garden Mum thrives in sunny, well-ventilated environments. With its love for bright light and fresh air, it’s a perfect addition to outdoor spaces or sunny indoor spots that mimic its natural growing conditions.
Key attributes
With its vivid, colorful blooms and rich green foliage, the Garden Mum is a showstopping plant that brings instant cheer to any space. Its compact, bushy form makes it perfect for patios, balconies, or bright indoor spots that need a splash of seasonal color and charm.
Garden Mums are available in multiple sizes and can reach an approximate height of 40–60cm when mature:
Large: 30cm–60cm in height, housed in a 250mm black nursery pot.
Care mode
Water consistently, allowing the top layer of soil to dry slightly between waterings. Known for their hardiness, Garden Mums can handle a bit of neglect—but they’ll thrive with regular attention. During the growing season, especially in warmer months, feed them with fertilizer to promote bold, long-lasting blooms and healthy, dense foliage.
Feeding your indoor plants
To keep your Garden Mum flourishing, it’s important to give it the right nutrients. The Good Plant Co Indoor Plant Food is an excellent choice to support bold blooms and lush, green foliage. During the warmer months, when your Mum is actively growing and showing off its colorful flowers, it’ll appreciate more frequent feeding and regular watering. As the weather cools and growth slows down, you can scale back both. Keep an eye out for fresh buds or new growth—those are your cues that it’s time for a little extra TLC. For a picture-perfect plant, gently clean the leaves with The Good Plant Co Leaf Shine to keep them looking healthy and vibrant.
We take great care in growing, packaging, and shipping your new plants so they’re ready to thrive in your home. This includes keeping them safe while they travel from our wholesale nursery to your doorstep.
