2021 CCCs Challenge Mum the garden mum Rhonda in red, bronze, and purple
Every year our membership receives a mum cutting to grow as a challenge. This year our challenge is the garden mum Rhonda. Growing mums is more an art than a science based on many factors; the microenvironment, water, sun, insect visitors, etc, etc.
