Re: Favorite late summer/early fall flowers

I've had luck so far with "tenor", a hot pink paniculata, and "david", a
white garden phlox.  My "bright eyes" got mildew this year, and I bought an
orange, "tango" early in the summer and so far so good.   I cut bright eyes
down 2" from the ground, and hope for better luck next year.  The flowers
were very nice.  We've had a lot of rain here in the last month.  (So.
Coastal Maine, Zone 5) yet  they've all held up pretty well, my roses and
bee balm got mildew far worse!
