I live in an area with terrible heat, dry heat, low water between June till the end of August. We don't usually have cold hit and not be able to grow until around the beginning of November.
I thought it might be possible to plant some flowers in the fall, after the raw heat goes down. But planting now I think it might be too hot and I'm worried I may have missed the window.
My question is, if you plant fall flowers, even if they have time to come up, I'm not sure if they will still seed properly before winter? Does this kind of technique work for people?
Thank you.

Have grown many of these perennials both sun and shade-loving. Have many hostas and Japanese Anemone in the shade garden. Have several sedums and sages on the south side.
Thanks for adding Ladys Mantle as I left her at my other house when I moved. I have a spot where a Gaillardia didnt make it this year. Ill find Ladys Mantle this year and put her there!
I love the feathery yellow blooms and the way the accordion leaves catch the dew drops!

I have a spot in the corner of the house (a wall to the south and a wall to the east) that gets about 4-5 hours of hot afternoon sun from mid spring to mid autumn and complete shade the rest of the day and no direct sun at all the rest of the year. I'm thinking that geraniums may do well there. Does anyone know of any other plants, flowering or not, for a spot like that one? Thank you.

We live in North Central Texas near DFW. Our house has full sun most of the day. Sun hits first in backyard and afternoon in front. Property was fields and not much break from the sun. Therefore, need drought tolerant and can handle lots of hot sun with no shade. What would you suggest? Little hint just starting out and in our 70's. Thanks for your time. Karen

Do you just break off the stalks of autumn joy sedum? I love them but I used one plant and literally made hundreds. Simply break off any size of the plant and take thumb and poke hole. One plant in a couple years can yield hundreds of new starts. I don't even water. I got too many and got tired of cleaning it after winter. It is a great easy plant.

Great video! I live on the coast of Ecuador and dont have deer and rabbit issues, but opossum and iguana problems. I would love to find information on plants that are iguana resistant and best for Ecuadorean gardens. Generally, anything you put in the ground here grows, which makes gardening here delightful.

Seeing this a year after you posted. I love some plants you mentioned, especially the autumn hosta. But they are toxic for cats and dogs I also noticed your lovely cat roaming around in the video. How do you keep cat safe from eating toxic plants?
