Fall Gardening Lessons from Our Test Garden


Roses, yellow daisies, and Sheffield mums in Test Garden
 

Try Something Different

Believe it or not, there are fall-blooming perennials other than mums and asters. Here, sunny fall-bloomer Helianthus angustifolius 'First Light' holds its own with 'Earth Song' rose and 'Sheffield' mums. Other fall-blooming perennials include Japanese anemone, toad lily, Joe Pye weed, and boltonia.
