There's a local grower that supplies plants to a very large grocery store chain around here and last year everytime I bought a mum from them they got wilty (my new word) fast! I didn't even bother trying their plants this year! I'm convinced it was the fungus. Hope you stay frost-free for a few more weeks. It's too early for this cold weather.

I have always had good luck with mums-buying the tightly budded ones and keeping them well watered. This year they all opened at once and immediately began to 'fail'. Not sure what happened but maybe I just got a bad batch. There is always next year. No frost here yet-but it is coming. xo Diana
