Vivid Blooms
I ordered four of these and placed them throughout my front yard. They arrived packed nicely with many starter blooms. These plants require a lot of water and sun.. perfect for Florida during the fall. After tending to them for a couple of weeks, you’ll see they have started to bloom. I really like the orange ones as they have an Ombré starburst effect! I only wish they were fuller and hope with time and love they will get there! These sets make GrEAT gifts!

Cheerful mums
These yellow chrysanthemum plants are attractive. They are 12” tall above the soil in their 5½” high x 8” diameter pots. They bloom continuously here in Connecticut in October. We water them every two days and have them on the terrace where they get sun. We’ll put them in the garage by a window when frost comes, and we’ll plant them in our yard next spring, hoping they’ll bloom again. The bright yellow blooms are delightful. The pots are plastic, lightweight and non-rusting, an unobtrusive black color with barrel-like rings. These are cheerful mums.

Suprisingly health and well packaged!!!!
I always hestitate getting live plants shipped as you never know in what condition they are going to arrive. But I have to honestly say these mums were unbeatable in the condition they came in and how well packaged they were. Each plant was securely fastened inside the box in cardboard cutouts with stakes to ensure nothing fell on them and on top of that each pot was wrapped in plastic to ensure the moisture and the dirt stayed. They are just beautiful, vibrant and healthy with a gorgeous yellow color!!

Very pretty
I ordered these flowers hoping they’d arrive in good condition, which I felt was unlikely. However, I was very pleasantly surprised to find that the box they were sent in and the way they were packed was excellent. The pots were wrapped all around and up to the stem with plastic wrapping so that very little soil fell out into the box in transit. While the plastic had to be cut off with a knife and was a little difficult to do, it was a good idea. There were also bamboo sticks in the pots so the flower heads wouldn’t beat against the box and be broken off. They arrived in excellent shape with only one bud lying in the bottom of the box. Awesome.

Ready to bloom is a stretch, but still nice
I would define "ready to bloom" as literally any day now. These probably have a week or two before they really reach that stage. That said, the plants are very healthy and look nice. There were no dead branches or wilting flowers when we got ours. Because it's so late in the season I may have to bring ours indoors to finish off the bloom but no one objects to nice blooming flowers inside. The pots are a little smaller than I was expecting (see photo for scale) but have a great faux-wooden bucket look to them. If I had to describe the pot size I guess I would say they are they are "palm sized".

Cute Decorative Planters
Just received these Costa Farms Yellow Fall Chrysanthemums and they are certainly ready to bloom. They arrived in perfect condition, wrapped in brown Kraft paper with bamboo stakes for stability. They are filled with abundant yellow buds. These plants definitely are a bit “leggier” than the promotional photo so they do not make a full rounded appearance in their containers. The containers are cute, faux whisky barrels that would look nice in a fall display. They are made of plastic and have drainage holes in the base. I have noticed that in general, chrysanthemums seem less full this year in general and these follow that trend. They are very healthy however, so I look forward to some cheerful yellow blooms.

A Great Two Pack of Mums
The 3 Qt. Ready to Bloom, Yellow, Fall Mums, Chrysanthemum in Whiskey Barrell (2-Pack) is a very nice plant. I like the Whisky Barrell design on the plastic container. The Mums are packaged very well for the vendor to meet todays fast paced transportation needs. The Mums are starting to bloom and, in a week or so, they may be in full bloom for the fall season. Looks great and I am so glad that we selected the Mums for the fall season. Arrived in great condition.

Very beautiful Mums
This is a 2 pack of yellow fall Mums that are in a very attractive whisky barrel design that are about to bloom. Since arrival they have bloomed into an attractive fall chrysanthemum plant, perfect for this season of the year. These are grown and shipped out of Homestead, FL in a very well put together shipping box with marking so the delivery company know which way to stack the product to prevent damage to the product. Also the whiskey barrel container is wrapped in shrink wrap to keep the soil inside the pot in the event it is stacked improperly. The two pieces of pole also secure the plaint for shipment.

Nice plants
These mums came very well packaged. There was large amounts of bubble wrap nestled between the pots to keep them from shifting in transit. They had wooden rods to keep them top of the box from possibly collapsing and crushing the plants. There was brown paper around each plant as well as plastic wrap around the top of the soil and planter. The plants themselves were healthy and of good size. The blossoms had not yet opened, allowing for them to open once received. The stems were nice and thick. The barrel planters are really cute. These will make an attractive addition to any garden or landscape.

Perfect Plants, Again
I've gotten plants from here before and they arrived in excellent condition. No different with these. The way they are packed is very impressive. You can see that they truly care. Both mums were perfect, no broken stems or dropped leaves. They looked extremely healthy. These will be a great addition to my patio. They are just starting to bloom. Don't limit yourself to in-store purchases only, you're missing out.

These mums arrived full of buds ready to bloom, ranged in height from 14" to 20", and are very healthy plants. They are well shaped and dense like round pincushions with so many yellow buds ready to open. I put in larger pots in our entrance garden. From the pictures you can see that they were ready to bloom a couple weeks ago and now are blooming a rich yellow color and look great. Final note: I have never experienced better shipping of any product I have had delivered.

I received the COSTA FARMS 3 QT. READY TO BLOOM, YELLOW, FALL MUMS, CHRYSANTHEMUM IN WHISKEY BARRELL (2-PACK) to review for Home Depot. They arrived quickly and in great health. They are nicely shaped and look great! I expect that they will bloom any day now. I am always a bit skeptical about mail order plants, but I have never been disappointed with the plants from Home Depot!

These mums are perfect if you are looking for a smaller pot of them. Although it is listed as 3 QT size they seem smaller than that. They were in good shape with plenty of green and lots of buds that in a week have a few now open as the pictures show. These came in a plastic container that I put into a bigger flower pot outside our garage doors. I was expecting more to be bloomed by now but we will see had they open in the next few weeks.

Mums arrived with no damage. Open up the package outside because some soil will spill out. I was impressed with the full coverage of buds ready to bloom. A couple flowers opened up within a week. I expect full blooming within 2 weeks. The yellow and orange colors are perfect for fall decorating. I like the convenience of the potted plants being delivered right to my front door. It makes decorating for fall and Halloween so easy.

These plants from Costa Farms arrived safely because they were excellently packaged. I just had to adjust the peat in the pot after unwrapping them. I have ordered plants online before, but none were as healthy as these are. They were thirsty, but perked up quickly with watering. One is not as full as the other, but it will soon grow. They are full of buds, and I am anxious to see them in bloom. Although one reviewer may have received wooden pots, mine came in plastic pots with a whiskey-barrel "look", not wood. The pot measures about 9" across the top, and 6" across the bottom and 6.25" tall. There are 4 drain holes on the bottom. The plants I received are approximately 15" and 12" wide.

Costa Farms ready to bloom yellow chrysanthemum (Mums) in 3 quart whiskey barrel pot – two pack. These yellow mums were shipped from Miami, Florida stacked two to a box. They arrived healthy and vibrant, ready for some sun to get the blossoms to open. The “whiskey barrel pots” are a nice touch, are a heavy gauge plastic, and look much nicer then the usual thin, plain plastic pots. My wife is very happy with these mums! She loves to have color stay around the house in the Fall, and these mums are perfect for that. My complaint with other mums we have purchased locally in the past is their lack of winter hardiness. Costa Farms advertises their mums as a “garden variety” that is winter hardy and generally good for zones 5 – 9. So, we shall see how these hold up and hopefully enjoy them for more than one Fall season. From their website: “Mums are easy to grow and will last for years, but be sure to select plants that are labeled "garden mums." Varieties sold indoors at florists are generally not cold hardy and should be treated as short-lived seasonal gift plants for interior design only. Mums prefer a sunny spot in the garden with well-drained soil. Avoid locations where water stands after a heavy rain. To get the best bloom on large-flowering types, pinch off all the buds in late May. This will encourage more compact growth and additional blooms. In northern parts of their range, apply a winter mulch to protect mums from sub zero temperatures. If your mums grow too large, divide them in the early spring every two to three years. After a few years some mums may begin to weaken or die out. Add new plants every year or two to keep the fall color show going. Deer and rabbits generally avoid dining on mums.” No guarantee/warranty noted. Product of USA.

When fall finally arrives and the outdoor decorating begins I always want mums on the front porch. These Coast Farms 3qt. ready to bloom mums are fabulous. They arrived and were in excellent condition, lots of buds and close to blooming (I expect by mid-week I will have blooms). I really like that they came with a little booklet that included care instructions which I appreciated. A winner for the fall! I look forward to trying more of their plants!

The Costa Farms 3 Qt. Yellow Ready to Bloom Fall Mums Chrysanthemum (2-pack) arrived in perfect condition, and both plants are full of buds as described on the Home Depot website. I expect that the buds will begin to open in about 2 weeks. Further, I am pleased with the size and shape of the mums. Both mums were placed in a large planter with a purple fountain grass 'Rubrum' that was purchased at the Home Depot Garden Center. The mums are a beautiful floral addition to my fall landscape.

These Fall mums came via a package carrier and are in great shape. They were well packaged, one on top of the other using bamboo stickers to keep them separated. They have no blemishes whatsoever and have a very vibrant green foliage. A couple of the flowers are starting to bloom, and they are both covered with many more blossom buds. I’m very happy with these mums. They are very healthy, full, and it looks like there will be many flowers on them.

These Chrysanthemums are a nice sunny welcome for my fall decor. They came packaged very well so as not to cause any damage to the plants. They are potted in cute little whiskey barrell pots making them rather versatile. They haven't blossomed as of yet, but will any day now. Since they have numerous blooms just waiting to open. Thank You Home Depot

Two healthy plants covered in unopened flower buds in light weight plastic "whiskey barrel" pattern planters. Pro: Ample soil, plants undamaged in shipping, not dried out, no brown leaves. Packaging easy to remove without damaging plants. Con: Plants were stacked on top of each other, separated by vertical dowel rods. Topmost plant had slipped thru the supports and was partially resting on bottom plant. While plants were not damaged, a little more time in a delivery truck would have probably resulted in damage, so dinging one star in my rating. Quality of the plants themselves however is excellent.

These plants came well-packaged in cute wooden barrel pots that make these attractive to leave out on the patio to bloom. These plants arrived literally ready to bloom, shipped from Florida to Idaho arrived in great shape (see photos). Removing from the box was simple, just lifted up the plants, did not have to destroy the box to extract the plants. I appreciate the planting instructions as well.

The Costa Farms 3 Qt. yellow ready to bloom fall Mums Chrysanthemum are very nice. First off the shipping container is very stought. The plants were packed in a way they'll take normal shipping with ease. When unpacking the plants they were not damaged and had good color. While these are just ready to bloom as advertised, I'm sure in a few weeks they'll be just lovely.

These two healthy chrysanthemum plants arrived in one tall box, one stacked on top of the other, with no broken branches, separated by wooden dowels taller than the plant, holding them apart. The mums are well shaped and dense like round pin cushions with so many yellow buds ready to open. Instructions included are customer friendly with invitations to inquire about any problems or issues with planting. I asked question as to whether these were hardy or annual mums and it was answered within 4 hours.

I was curious how well live plants would survive shipping. The answer? Spectacularly! They came in a cardboard box, one on top of another. Bamboo shoots were used strategically to prevent them from getting crushed and they were wrapped in heavy brown paper to protect them. They came with their shapes intact. The bottom one had the slightest flattening on top but it fluffed right back up. We've had some really hot weather recently so I was worried they would have dried out but the soil was moist. The plants have tons of buds ready to burst into blooms. They are a healthy looking bright green. The pots look like whiskey barrels which is nice b/c I don't even need to re-pot them, they will look great on my porch as is.

both of these mums came packed great and they were still wet from when they were watered last, the directions were right to the point on how to remove from the box and how to remove from the packaging, once out each plant is about a foot tall and both come in there own pot, i can't yet tell what color they are going to be , but i hope they are two different colors !

These fall Mums arrived packaged very well. And the whiskey barrels they came in is so cute. Mums are very easy to take care of. Beautiful blooms in the fall And a beautiful green plant in the summers. They are just about to blooms. Can’t wait. I suggest trying mums in your yard as well. Either in a planter or in your yard. I love mine in my yard

These mums arrived exactly as described. They were full of buds ready to bloom, ranged in height from 14" to 20", and were very healthy plants. The packaging was fantastic and there was no crushing or breakage of the plants. They were wrapped well to protect the plants and had two sticks in each one pot to keep the pots away from each other and keep the shipping method (UPS or FedEx) from crushing them. The outer cardboard box was heavy duty and will stand up to normal shipping abuse. Costa Farms did a good job not only with their growing, but with their shipping too.

These mums are hearty looking plants and expected to bloom fully and beautifully. The pots they are planted in look like small whiskey barrels and offer a nice compliment to any porch or patio area. The plants, (2-pack), were packed well, and despite being placed on top of one another in the box, they were both in very good condition, needing only a little water.
