Yesterday was a flower display of red and white blooms today it is again Crocosmia 'Lucifer' (montbretia) but combined with a pale purple flowered Aster (Michaelmas daisy) in a roadside verge on Orkney, Scotland.

In the autumn border the tender, evergreen subshrub Salvia leucantha (Mexican bush sage) formed a striking combination with the herbaceous perennial Symphyotrichum novi-belgii 'Purple Dome' (Michaelmas daisy, aster).

The distinctive, black stems and dark foliage of Symphyotrichum 'Glow in the Dark' (aster, New England aster, Michaelmas daisy) show off the semi-double, lilac flowers. Here repeat plantings of this disease resistant cultivar provides splashes of colour for the autumn against the formal features in this garden, including a shaped Pyrus salicifolia 'Pendula' (weeping silver pear).

Ideal for providing late summer colour and a food source for the pollinators are the flowers of Symphyotrichum novae-angliae (aster, New England aster, Michaelmas daisy). This vigorous herbaceous perennial has a wide range of cultivars with purple, pink and white flowers which associate well with ornamental grasses.

In the late summer and autumn border the herbaceous perennial Aster x frikartii 'Monch' (Michaelmas daisy) provides a fine display as well as pollen and nectar for insects. This form has good mildew resistance.

I *think* this is a michaelmas daisy or a variety of. Dad, aka The Gardener, bought me this plant last year as a birthday present. It was tiny in comparison to what it is now. It's huge! But it's just flowering, ready for my birthday this year and is adding colour to my garden. 😍😊 #garden #gardensofinstagram #flowersofinstagram #michaelmasdaisy #flowers #birthdaymonth #birthday #october🍁 #libra #pink #birthdaypresents https://www.instagram.com/p/B3SWkZZAC96/?igshid=1431hdfn9ws9c
New England Aster or #Michaelmasdaisy, a late season wildflower & one of the last to bloom each year; it sometimes symbolizes a goodbye or departure- like saying goodbye to Summer. #Michaelmas for St Michael (the patron saint of police officers, paratroopers & paramedics) whose feast day falls on September 29th around when the flowers are plentiful. #phenology #phenologywheel #wildflowers #flowerstagram (at Petersham, Massachusetts) https://www.instagram.com/p/B3A0TPtlNbH/?igshid=l0n455oztue6
