Abby bought mums in the bud stage so that they would bloom at home. She also picke up some galvanized buckets. The galvanized buckets lend that nice country down home look. Decorating with flower is easy.

Wonderful orange/yellow mums. Remember to buy plants with buds, not already in flower. The galvanized bucket is a nice touch, and covers the plain plastic pot. Abby just placed the store-bought plant into the bucket. No repotting necessary. Water daily.
