Fall Blooming Flowers

by tomboesen on September 16, 2011

Spring and summer offers bright and beautiful flowers but fall brings rich vibrant or cool colors to your garden.

Here are just a few eye-catching options for your fall garden or bouquet.


Helenium

Helenium truly comes in an array of fall colors from yellow to orange and red. This easy to grow flower has spherical brown cones covered in pollen with small yellow petals encircling it.

Goldenrod

This bright yellow flower brightens up any garden. This is a tough flower that holds up against drought. Many describe the Goldenrod’s bloom as firework looking.

Aster

September’s flower of the month comes in shades of pink, blue, purple, and white. The flowers are small and daisy-like and tend to start blooming in late August and continue until frost

Perennial Sunflower

Most people think of big blooming annual sunflowers, but perennials offer other garden options. The Helianthus ‘Lemon Queen’ produces creamy yellow blooms in late summer or early fall.

Turtlehead

This flower is irregular and two-lipped bloom resembling a turtles head. This white flower often with a pink tinge blooms late summer to early fall.
