Garden Mums...keep in pot or plant for winter?

[tinkerrn]

I have several mums that are still in their pots. I would like to know what is better for the winter...planting the mums or keeping them in their pots? I live in Kentucky. Thanks!

If you plant them they will come back next year; they usually do here in PA for us. And its easier to keep them watered in in the ground, my pots seem to dry out quickly!

They come back the next year in Ohio too.
