Blooms at the end of the season
Today we ’re visiting with Robin Sams , who has been garden on this attribute in northeast North Carolina for 10 years .
I constitute these cleomes(Cleome hassleriana , annual ) andzinnias(Zinnia elegans , annual ) from germ after my many Narcissus pseudonarcissus finished dying back . I trust they reseed next year.(Note : To encourage annuals toself - sow , bound the amount of mulch you use in areas where you ’d like them to germ until the seedlings are up and growing . )
A friend have me thisswamp sunflower(Helianthus angustifolius , Zones 5–9 ) , a aboriginal perennial .
Native water lilies(Nymphaea odorata , Zones 4–11 ) andSiberian iris(Iris sibiricahybrid , Zones 3–8 ) . I planted the water system lily myself .
Encoreazaleas(Rhododendronhybrid , Encore group , Zones 7–10 ) bloom again in the fall .
honest-to-goodness pines , nandina(Nandinadomestica , Zones 6–9),hydrangeas , azaleas , and more .
Winterberry(Ilexverticillata , Zones 3–9 ) loaded with red berries.(Note : This native Charles Hardin Holley is deciduous , so the leafage drop off to showcase the berry even more dramatically through the winter . )
Swamp helianthus , Mexican heather(Salvialeucantha , zone 7–10 ) , gaura(Gauralindheimeri , Zones 5–9 ) , and pansies(Viola× wittrockiana , cool - season one-year ) .
Mexican heather contrast nicely with tall swamp sunflowers .
The white hybrid tea leaf rose ‘ Full Sail ’ and others in tone of pink .
