Mums arrive in September when most of the garden is winding down, and Zinger Yellow brings genuine cheer to borders and containers through frost. The daisy-form flowers are cheerful and compact, making it easy to tuck into spaces where you need a quick pop of color.

Plant in good drainage and give it afternoon shade if you're in the hottest part of town. Water regularly and it will keep flowering into November, long after tender annuals have given up.
