After a very hot last few weeks, the rain has finally arrived. Although the weather was fabulous, the garden did suffer. Many plants flowered and went over a lot faster than usual. Now is a good time to inject the garden with some late summer colour.
Here are a few plants to consider:
-
- Grasses are looking fab.
-
- Rudbeckia is coming into flower.
-
- Agapanthus still have lots of life in them yet.
-
- Hebes adding great colour
-
- Artemesia brighten dark borders
-
- Leucothes are great for adding colour to pots or any container
-
- Violas and pansies are great for pots, basket and window boxes.
-
- Heuchera ‘Marmelade’
-
- Asters are affectionately known as September for obvious reasions
-
- Gaillardias are great for wildlife
-
- Fucshias are still doing their thing
-
- Heuchera ‘Forever Purple’ ‘
-
- Hebes look great in pots too.
-
- Violas will flower through to winter
-
- Hydrangeas add a bold colour to any border or patio pot.
-
- Fucshias in bright pots can not be missed
-
- The flowers on grasses add lovely height to borders and move beautifully in the wind
-
- Heucherella ‘Tapestry’
