The Homecoming Mums Craze

Homecoming Mums Popularity is Spreading

I am curious about homecoming mums.

Where did you get your information about them being solely in TX and OK?

I grew up in TX with mums and now live in Missouri.

Our oldest child is a freshman and I was surprised to see no mums at this year's homecoming game.

Now I'm trying to gather information to write an article about all this.

Thanks for your help! Your site is enjoyable.

Thank you, Susanna. I'm glad you're enjoying the site.

When I wrote the first homecoming mum article after moving to Texas and seeing the phenomenon firsthand, I started asking people.

Someone showed me a newspaper article that stated they were only popular in TX and OK. That seemed to be confirmed by my conversations. I questioned people who had grown up all across the South.

Subsequently, I've received several letters like yours - Texans or Oklahomans who have moved to another state and miss the homecoming mum tradition.

So I published this article about Homecoming Mums as a Business to help them spread the fun.

When I wrote it, Georgia and Louisiana were beginning to come on board, but I'm sure it has spread further by now. I would say it's about time for Missouri!

Thank you. Perhaps we'll be able to start the trend!
