Wow you have mums this late, and vibrant too. You certainly have a beautiful presentation. Ours have mainly petered out but there is still an occasional pot that survived every few blocks.

Next year it might be cool (and $$$) that this late in the season you also offer primarily colors more in tune to Thanksgiving - the oranges /reds/golds, especially the ones with a red center. It seems more deliberate that way and makes people think about buying another round of mums for the stretch leading to Thanksgiving. You can make it a premium product and wrap the pots in red or gold foil and put a pilgrim pick in the middle. I've noticed that people are going all out to decorate for Thanksgiving whereas it was very minor in prior years.

Its just too early to put red and green out, they pushed it too soon last year. When does your market end?
