🍂✨ Colchicums: The Jewels of the Fall Garden 🍂✨ Colchicums: The Jewels of the Fall Garden ✨🍂
Just when summer starts to fade, colchicums step in with their unexpected charm! Sometimes called autumn crocus(though they’re not true crocuses), these fall-flowering bulbs bring elegant color when most blooms have gone. 

Here are 4 standout varieties to add to your garden this season:

🌿 Byzantinum ‘Innocence’
Delicate white blooms with soft lilac-pink streaks—refined and luminous. A graceful addition to borders or under trees.
🕰️ Blooms: Late summer to early fall

💗 Pink Star
Soft blush-pink flowers with a wide, star-like shape. Gentle in tone but stunning in mass plantings.
🕰️ Blooms: Early to mid fall

🔮 Poseidon
Rich lavender-purple petals with a golden heart. Named after the god of the sea, it’s a bold and majestic fall highlight.
🕰️ Blooms: Mid fall

💜 Lilac Wonder
Large, goblet-shaped blooms in glowing lilac tones. A standout for fall color and drama!
🕰️ Blooms: Late summer to early fall

🌱 How to Plant:
• When: Late summer (July–August)
• Where: Full sun to part shade
• How: Plant corms 3–5 inches deep, 6–8 inches apart
• Note: Flowers often appear before the foliage—don’t worry, that’s normal! Let leaves grow and die back naturally to nourish next year’s bloom.

Colchicums bring magic when you least expect it. Plant now and thank yourself later. 🌸🍁
August is here and the garden is beginning to danc August is here and the garden is beginning to dance in the late summer palette of purples and golds. 

These American natives are buzzing with life, and we are grateful to witness their beauty every season. Adding one (or all of them!) is a gift to the earth and the creatures in your garden, including you.

4. Liatris pycnostachya 'Lavender Glowsticks' lights up the back of any border with blooms over 14 inches long
5. and 6. Rudbeckia triloba's small, delicate flowers twinkle like stars on slender, tall stems. 'Prairie Glow' adds intrigue with a splash of deep rust on the traditionally yellow bloom
7. Eutrochium purpureum, or Joe Pye Weed, is a classic pollinator favorite with excellent height and mass in the garden
