Grow this plant collection for
a blooming good time in the fall. Late-season color can lift
your spirits like nothing else can before winter changes the
landscape.
Autumn
crocus
Autumn crocus has a cup-shaped flower like the true spring crocus,
but its pink, white, or light purple 4-inch flowers bloom in
fall.
Autumn
joy sedum
It is practically foolproof, and offers spectacular color during
the latter part of the growing season when most other flowers
are fading.
Witchhazel
Common witchhazel blooms in fall -- sometimes when the shrub
still holds its yellow leaves, sometimes after the leaves fall.
Burning
Bush
Burning bush is a deciduous shrub that is popular for its brilliant
scarlet fall color.
Goldenrod
It's an ideal filler plant for fall arrangements and creates
the same airy effect in late-season borders.
