More Information About Fall Flowering Plants
Now that the dog days are done, get back outside and plant some of the best fall flowering perennials like Muhlenbergia and Helianthus.
For many, autumn is the best time of year to garden. The heat of summer has finally broken and the crisp autumn air is a delight to work in. Plants are no longer growing fast so watering, pruning and weeding duties have ebbed. And the early evening sun lights up fall flowering plants with a golden glow. If you enjoy autumn in the garden, then you should plant plenty of fall flowering plants to keep you company. In the south, where the ground never freezes, fall is the best time to plant, because the plant roots have months to knit into the soil before the start of the next warm season.
Fall Perennials take over for the summer flowers and keep the garden showy as the days get shorter. When choosing fall perennials, you can select fall blooming flowers, but do not forget foliage plants either. We have a large selection of the best fall perennials to choose from.
The best fall perennials are:
- Aster - probably the best fall flowering plant in terms of sheer flower power.
- Coreopsis,
- Chrysanthemum,
- Dahlia,
- Farfugium,
- Helianthus,
- Hedychium,
- Muhlenbergia,
- Miscanthus,
- Salvia,
- Solidago,
- Tricyrtis.
The best fall perennials for foliage include Muhlenbergia, Heuchera and Sedum whose leaves change colors as the temperatures drop.
When harvest season approaches, do the opposite and plant fall flowering plants! When you are ready to buy fall garden plants for your garden, check out our online list of the best fall flowering plants for sale.
