Aster x frikartii is another fall staple and can be found at most garden centers in late summer. Asters also stay in a somewhat mounded form, and their purplish-blue colors pair nicely with ornamental cabbage and contrast beautifully with orange- and rust-colored blooms.Botanical name: Aster x frikartiiUSDA zones: 5 to 10Water requirement: Medium moisture, well-drained soilsLight requirement: Full sun to light shadeMature size: 1 foot to 2 feet tall and 3/4 to 1 foot wide

The lack of flowers blooming in the garden in the fall can be a real bummer, but as I write this in August, you've got time to plant some autumn bloomers. Asters come in a range of stunning colors, particularly pinks and purples, and there are more than 600 known species to choose from. Plant these in your existing perennial gardens, create a border garden or add them to a wildflower meadow mix to keep your garden blossoming and colorful well into fall.

Aster, mi Planting notes: As soon as you see aster plants in the nursery, snatch them up and plant them in late summer or early fall. This will give them a good chance to get established before the first frost, which increases their chances of returning the following year. •Prepare your soil with organic material to make sure it's rich and loamy. •Because sizes can vary, follow the instruction on the tag or seed packet regarding spacing. •Be extra sure to keep the plants watered during blooming season. •Deadhead to keep your plant blooming as long as possible. •When the plant dies back as winter approaches, cut it back to the ground.
