Mum is no longer the word

A couple of weeks ago, I purchased some lovely mums from Home Depot. I had a vision of grandeur; our courtyard was going to be gorgeous when the mums bloomed.

Let me remind you of what I started with:
This is what they look like today:



These aren't my visions of grandeur. I'm not sure what went wrong, but something obviously did. Maybe it was too hot? I watered them, but two never bloomed and one kind of did, but not really. I would like to point out my lovely planters. I bought them just for these blasted mums. I didn't bother photographing the third plant. It looks just like the one above that has no blooms on it.

I know the yard needs to be mowed. It's too wet today. Maybe tomorrow.
