Quentin Stark of Hole Park Gardens was asked to plant a 'bowl of colour' in the herbaceous borders of their Centenary Garden. And the colour needed to last thought spring, summer and fall (autumn). Here he picks 18 late season flowering plants which will bloom for months in your garden.
Note on climate zones: Many of these plants will grow across a wide range of zones and climates. I have put their winter hardiness on screen. If your climate is too cold to keep some through the winter, you can usually grow them summer-only as annuals or store them over winter.
