Plants in autumnThe autumn flower beds are fullcharm. Luxury garden plants, accumulated over the summer, are pleasing to the eye. Perfect decoration and gala parks of the garden, and its secluded corners becomes a flax-tinged - its unpretentious flowers with an unusually diverse coloring of the petals. There are more than 1500 varieties of phlox, among which there are many and late-barking varieties. Flowers of phlox have an unusual, astringent aroma, especially noticeable in the evening hours. To compete with them on the part of the smell can be unless the monarch is a double - one of the most famous garden plants containing essential oils. Monard leaves the "autumn scene" early enough, together with the king of September beds - a dahlias cultural, whose korneklubni by mid-October should already be excavated and dried for storage. But another famous representative of the same family of composite flowers - asters - is destined to indulge their presence of flower lovers until the fall. The New Belgian and New England aster are very tall, and the shrub aster is able to play the role of a curb plant in autumn. Pink, white, carmine and lilac shades of asters are especially good in alternation with helenium and rudbeckies.
Fairy-tale thickets look magnificent curtainsRudbeckie is dissected, one of the varieties of which is better known as the "golden ball". Two other very popular species are glistening and rudbeckia glossy, although they are inferior to the "golden ball" in growth, but they are capable of giving a certain bulk to the autumn flower bed due to the brownish shades of their petals. There, where giant growth is not needed, the helenium of autumn looks good, which, in addition to its inherent variety of color in different varieties of this plant (from golden to reddish and brown), is able to change the color of its inflorescences at different times of flowering. Thus, on one bush of the helenium one can simultaneously find harmonious color transitions. Numerous varieties of chrysanthemum of Korean - the leader of autumn flowering - blossom until the first snowfalls. Chrysanthemum can not but be popular, so its splendid inflorescences are beautiful, which can be both terry and simple, of the most varied color and size. 
A good backdrop for a joyful golden yellowthe gamut of autumn colors are trees and shrubs with brightly colored foliage. The leader among such plants is the girlish, beautifully dissected leaves of which, with the onset of cold weather, are painted in burgundy tones. Used most often for vertical gardening, girlish grapes or somewhat less common in gardens Amur grapes can completely braid with their shoots a garden gazebo, and walls of fences, and facades of houses. - gray leaves bring their own unique touch to the palette of the autumn garden. Magnificent maples, euonymus, brittle buckthorn with its lemon-yellow foliage - all these are good old friends of gardeners in the middle lane. Often, in addition to the juicy color of autumn leaves, plants can delight us with the brightness of fruits ripened in the sun. The already mentioned sea buckthorn decorates its branches with orange bunches of berries. Looks advantageous in the autumn garden of the tree, bringing out bright white balls of fruit against the background of pink or purple foliage to the rays of the autumn sun. Until late autumn, bright berries of hawthorn, rose hips, viburnum and mountain ash flaunt on the branches. Barberry is also good, its magnificently shaped red berries, collected in openwork brushes, can decorate any front garden. Barberry Thunberg has the fame of a plant that, due to the crimson color of its leaves, is capable of imparting texture to shrub plantations.
Barberry forms are often planted onAlpine roller coaster. Here you can find the heathers and Ericks blooming up to the very colds - unusually diverse and very widespread plants in the West, until they have gained a worthy popularity in our gardens. Cute, diverse coloring of the heather inflorescence easily tolerate the first frosts and retain decorativeness right up to the snow cover. Cultivation of these plants will become much simpler if, when planting them on the site, they bring from the neighboring forest a leaf litter with mycorrhiza in it - an indispensable component of the successful growth of all representatives of Vereskov. In rockeries and on the lawns of an autumn garden, colchicums or colchicums resembling their external species of crocus. Cemeteries pleases the eye with the richness of pink and lilac shades of their fairly large flowers. The absence of foliage, dying in the summer, in mid-July, leaves these plants completely defenseless before the autumn showers. To save the gentle petals of colchicum from heavy rain drops, you should arrange a canopy for them or transplant the branches of garden bushes under the canopy. In addition, one must remember that deciduous is poisonous, and thoroughly wash hands after "communicating" with a handsome man.
If you think that the autumn sectionnot enough decorative, remember that there is a magnificent garden reception that solves many problems - container gardening. Asters and chrysanthemums, variegated wheels and all the same heathers look great in pots, exposed both to the green thicket of the lawn that has grown over the summer, and along the garden paths. With the onset of frank cold, the containers can be collected and kept for some time on the windowsills in the house, and looking at the snow falling behind the window, remember the beauty of the past autumn, and also to think that every winter is just the threshold of a new summer ...
