What better way to enjoy some fall color than with mums. In our Midwest climate, mid-August to mid-October is ideal for planting a variety of plants. We love this time of year as the weather cools above ground while the soil stays warm below ground. This is especially important to promote good roots for a hardier plant next spring.

May founded Earl May Seed & Nursery in Shenandoah, a small town in southwest Iowa. In the beginning, a seed and nursery catalog was sent to only a handful of people.
