Think graceful salvia, clusters of echinacea and the soft feathers of ornamental grasses, as the late afternoon sun casts its golden glow across the blooms.
Stretch the joy of these moments a little longer and consider planting late-summer flowering perennials that carry the season’s brilliance into its final chapters.
