Mum is named for the flowers she waters, as well as her role in the Woodspirit community. All of the Collector Society pieces focus on an individual who loves nature and works to conserve and protect it. The Collector Society Artwork Series was begun in 1984 with Rorie, followed by Ernest, Kilmer, Hitch, and Blackie. It was decided it was time a lady joined this group. Mum was first introduced to the public in June, 1990 on a Univer- sity of North Carolina Center for a Public Television interview. Her kerchief signifies that Mum is a married lady, and her chrysanthemum will prosper and flourish as Mum's large family has. Her coin is from Austria and depicts another beautiful flower, the edelweiss. Mum is much loved, just like the "Queen Mum" of Great Britain.
