A vibrantly colored garden is usually associated with the spring season. However, you can change your landscape design to fit the fall season by planting cool-weather perennials in various hues. If you want to brighten your garden with beautiful fall colors this season, include the perennials below.

4 Perennials to Add to Your Garden for Fall Color 

1. Garden Mums

A classic choice for autumn, the garden mums will add any color imaginable to a fall landscape design. The blossoms range from pastel to bold hues. The plants grow wide and can reach one to three feet high. Garden mums thrive in sunlight and can be planted in beds as well as containers.

2. Red Jewel Helenium

This plant features daisy-like flowers in different shades of red and orange with yellow tips, which are traditional hues for fall. They bloom from midsummer to the end of the fall season. The flowers from the red jewel helenium plant are ideal for garden bouquets, and they can grow up to 36 inches high.

3. Cardinal Flower

The cardinal flower belongs to the lobelia family, which contains hundreds of varieties. The Lobelia cardinalis is a perennial that grows in clumps. Its tall spikes can reach over three feet tall, and they yield bright red, pink, or white blossoms that attract butterflies and hummingbirds. 

4. Oriental Lily

If you want to spruce up your fall landscape design with both color and fragrance, the Oriental lily is an excellent addition to your garden. This exotic plant grows between four to six feet tall. Their star-shaped flowers can be cream, white, yellow, pink, red, or orange, and the petals often feature dark stripes or spots. They may take a year or two to produce massive clumps, but these beautiful, fragrant flowers are worth the effort.
