Direct sunlight may burn the flowers. Avoid hot and cold drafts. Keep temperature around 60 to 65 degrees. Bring the plant out into the warmth only to show it off. Fertilize monthly with a soluble fertilizer.
Plant mums outdoors when they are finished blooming to bloom again in the fall.
This summer, pinch your mums monthly and you'll end up with more blooms next fall. To get the best selections, come early. Submerge the stem-end in a pan of water. Cut an inch of stem off while underwater to remove the air block in the stem end. Put the roses in a clean vase filled with fresh water.
