As late summer transitions into fall, the garden transitions, too—as many of the plants that bloomed in the summer begin to produce seeds or go dormant.
Join us to learn about some of the many perennials whose eye-catching flowers, attractive foliage, or interesting seed heads can extend your garden’s season as the days shorten and the temperatures cool.
Plus, learn essential tips for placing and caring for these plants in your landscape. Following the lecture, enjoy a guided walk to see firsthand how Longwood’s gardeners use perennials with fall interest in the landscape.
