Some flowers do better than others. And some have their own season to grow. I try to plant flowers that can deal with the local climate. But sometimes even they need a little help.
I've had these Stoke's Asters for maybe 25 years. They are pretty durable and (apparently) insect-free. But there used to be a dozen and now I see only 8. I enjoy seeing them every year.
But I really need to dig them up this Fall and move them to the front yard where The Mews don't go. Daylilies can be harmful to cats.
The yard Pansies are thoroughly done for the year! Well, they are Fall-to-Summer annuals.
The ones in deck pots get some shade and better watering, so they are still blooming.
These are from a few weeks ago, but they still look pretty much the same.
I tried to pick out some of the weeds, but the roots are very entangled, so I think I will just leave them alone.

Beautiful blooms, especially the asters.
