Viburnum Fall Color
Viburnum is a large genus, with many different ornamental species. A lot of the species and cultivars can have excellent fall color.
Fall Iris
The long fall, combined with the more than ample moisture, has caused this Iris to flower now. Usually these Irises flower in late spring.
Flowering Tobacco
Flowering Tobacco has been popping up in places where it wasn’t planted this year. Since it has been wet all year, the tiny seeds have taken off quite fast and have even resulted in this nice specimen above.
Golden Milkweed
Milkweed is no longer a forgotten plant on my Oasis. Some of the plants even had good fall colors.
Hydrangea Colorful Bracts
Hydrangea has bracts that are more attractive than the actual flowers. The bracts on this Hydrangea have turned a beautiful pink.
Iowa Pomegranate
Pomegranate has been a good ornamental flowering plant that I grow in a large pot. This plant will also produce ornamental fruit, but doesn’t ripen well for me.
Sun + Miscanthus
Miscanthus looks the best in the fall, when the large white plumes are shimmering in the sunlight. Some of the cultivars can get over 10 feet tall.
