Description
"Mums The Happy Fall Flower" When I saw these mums, I had to purchase them for our garden during the fall months. The color variagations in these mums, were so colorful, they shouted "so happy to that fall is here" to me. How I shot this image was to bring out the mums warm color tones, that to me is falls welcoming season's color, even though it is turning cool, the colors of fall are warmth like that of our fires in our fireplaces. I think it is God's way to let us to know He is keeping us warm by His color palette during the fall months and through the winter months to follow. I used different methods of painting to give this a painterly effect.
A very popular plant for late season color is fall mums, also called Garden mums or hardy mums. Fall mums were once known as Chrysanthemums, but taxonomists have recently changed their botanical name to Dendranthema x grandiflora. Fall mums are available in a wide selection of colors, flower types, shapes and sizes. They are a low maintenance, easy to grow plant that can be kept in containers or grown in beds. They are drought resistant and generally free of insect and disease pests. We plant these after they have stopped blooming in our "mums" garden, and they winter well and will bloom again in the late summer to fall.
