    1. Wildflowers for Fall Bloom Keep your order form handy to fill out as you view photos. Number at bottom right-hand side of page indicates plant number.

    3. New England Aster Symphyotrichum novae-angliae Showy bright rose-purple flowers with orange-yellow centers. Hairy, clasping leaves are arranged densely on stout stems that can grow to 6 ft. in height.

    4. New York Aster Symphyotrichum novi-belgii Earlier blooming & shorter than NE Aster. Slender mostly smooth stems bearing narrow leaves and numerous flower heads. This species is rarely offered for sale.

    5. White Joe-pye Weed Eupatorium maculatum 'Bartered Bride’ Billowing clouds of white attract just as many butterflies as the more common pink/mauve varieties. Spectacular at the back of the sunny border or the peak of perfection in a mini-meadow.

    6. White Snakeroot Eupatorium rugosum ‘Chocolate’ This is as close as it gets to a deer-proof plant. Bright white flowers really stand out against the chocolate leaves and shiny purple stems. Great with asters and a fine cut flower.

    7. Swamp Rose Mallow Hibiscus moscheutos Can reach 7’ in their favorite wetlands, reach 4 to 5’ tall in ordinary garden soil. The showy 6” blossoms can be pink, white or bi-colored. May not bloom the first year.

    8. Allegheny Sedum Sedum telephioides This native sedum looks like a pink-flowered version of non-native Sedum ‘Autumn Joy’ and is just as tough and everlasting. Wild populations are endangered in NY. Need Photo

    9. New England Blazing Star Liatris scariosa var. novae-angliae Deep purple star shaped flower clusters on 2-3’ stalks.  Combines well with little bluestem grass.  NY native but threatened on New York’s list of endangered plants. 

    10. Cut-leaf Coneflower Rudbeckia laciniata Large yellow daisies with green centers,dangling from 6-7’ stalks clothed in 3 to 5 lobed leaves. Snip in June for shorter, bushier plants.
