Topic: Did I lose them?

[duh]

My big bunch of bronze mums on the corner of the house are brown all the way to the ground.  That means they are dead right?  And the little puple and yellow clumps are completely gone above ground that means I lost them too doesn't it. 

It just was not a good year for me last year.

Cut them back to the ground and see what happens, Tammy. They may just make a reappearance from the roots.

Mine always died back to the ground and grew once it got warm.

Mine too. Don't give up on them quite yet.

Gosh, Tammy. Mine look just like yours. I sure hope they come back...

I think this bitter cold made them die back sooner than they normally do.  They'll come back in the fall.  Cut them back and cover with leaves or mulch.

[duh]

I'll definitely get out there tomorrow and get that done if it isn't raining.  Thanks for telling me.  I was thinking I lost the whole thing.

[duh]

Well now it's cross my fingers time I guess.  I hope they come back they were looking so good.

I noticed today out where my step dad is putting up the greenhouse that the daffodils are coming up.  How is it possible with all this cold?

[duh]

I'm so glad to hear that you have flowers comming up.  I really am looking forward to seeing flowers.

[bestofour]

did I ask what color tulips you have showing?

[Dianna]

I've gotten all my mums cut back now. I see green, too. I am so hoping that the really cold weather is gone from here now...

[duh]

I just have the tips of the leaves showing so no flower or color showing yet.
