Lets talk about fall flowers

Autumn is right around the corner, but the gardening season is not over yet. There are many plants that will continue to bloom, add color, and weather over nicely as the temperatures begin to cool off.
While asters, hardy mums, and ornamental cabbages have long been the staple of the fall garden, blooming well after the first frost, they are now making room for new varieties like “Icicle Pansies” and “Icicle Violas.” Notable for their ability to overwinter when planted inthe fall, these are bred specifically for cold climates. Planted in late summer or early fall, they’ll bloom until the snow flies and again in early spring, often even before spring bulbs.
Other fall-hardy plants include mums, ornamental kales, flowering cabbages, and dusty miller. However, you could also try planting a few more tender annuals as they will continue to flower for many weeks (climate permitting of course). One top pick of a more tender, yet great fall annual, includes:
Marigolds – their orange and yellow flowers are very autumn like. Plus at this time of year, you’re likely to get a great price on marigolds.
Fall is a very colorful time of year. Enhance your yard or patio this season by trying some fall plantings.
