Chrysanthemums Reign

Chrysanthemums are truly reminiscent of autumn.

Their showy blooms are quite a sight to behold.

However, their season is short-lived.

Before one knows it, frost comes and turns them brittle.

Because of their short season, this year I had decided to forgo spending money on them for the front yard.

Then came a trip to BJ's warehouse store and one humongous chrysanthemum just about jumped into the shopping cart.

It was so incredibly full and beautiful, that any possibility of refraining from buying it flew off in the autumn wind.

It cost $14.99 and was well worth it! 

So now, it sits regally on the remains of a tree stump throne in the front yard.

Chrysanthemum shelters a little white angel who seems quite content under the new flowering plant.
