The Cobden Class of 2023 and the Ed Rising Club are once again selling mums!
Each mum is $15, and is planted in a 9 inch diameter pot that is 7 Β½ inches tall - terra cotta in color. They βtypicallyβ grow to around 18-22 inches in diameter, but this varies with weather conditions and variety. Please order from a member of the Senior Class of 2023 or Ed Rising Club by Tuesday, September 13th for pick up at the school on Wednesday, September 21st.
A BIG thank you to Bass farms for supplying the mums, and thank you for supporting your Cobden Appleknockers!
