Depends.. some mums are hardy, some are not.
I'd pop them in the greenhouse and then harden them off after frosts are done. You may end up with an annual.. or perhaps a perennial.
Good for you! I'm trying to root some salvia for the very first time, took my cuttings last night so will keep my fingers crossed too.
Edd, you're rather philosophical tonight.
You may be proud of me. I potted the salvia cuttings up into a mix of compost and sandy garden soil (into old dirty uncleaned pots), gave them a good soak, my blessing, and left them outdoors in a semi shaded position to take their luck. May Mother Nature see fit to allow them life and growth.
Mmmm... chocolate. Not very good for my serpentine figure unfortunately. I'd take flowers any day.. perferably with the roots still attached.
