Mums and more! Beautiful blooms and colors from an array of plants that flower in fall

Mums and more! Beautiful blooms and colors from an array of plants that flower in fall. We will see a mum that survived our last terrible winter, another that’s a native putting on a show along the roadsides and yet another that grows in shade.

More than asters and chrysanthemums can be used to spruce up your sagging planters now. There are actually lots of options.

We have a Hip-hop arbor in the garden! It’s adorned with hops that grow on a vigorous vine that’s a great vertical feature even if you don’t brew your own. And our climbing rose has formed lovely rosehips that will remain throughout the winter.
