I always plant mums near oriental poppies, or something else that is a late
starter in spring (to give the poppies their "head") but grows and blooms in
the fall to hide the poppy. Another choice is asters, phlox paniculata,
solidago.

For mine is a little old fashioned garden where the flowers come together to
praise the Lord and teach all who look upon them to do likewise.

Hi,
I have been putting in a fairly large perennial garden since late last
summer. The plants came through the winter in great shape. I have
a question for you. What do you use for planting near oriental poppies to
fill the void after the foliage does back? I would prefer to stick with
perennials. I guess that I am looking for late breaking/blooming species
that will allow both to have their season.
Thanks
