A glamorous beauty with its opulent, brilliant orange flowers superbly contrasting with the spectacular and massive, dark burgundy foliage, award-winning Canna 'Wyoming' immediately provides a cheerful touch of the tropics in the garden or patio. Blooming from mid-summer to fall, it has a medium size that makes it a perfect fit for container planting.

A must-have in the late season garden! Helenium 'Waltraut' is highly prized by gardeners for its extremely long blooming season, large blossoms (3" wide or 8 cm) and its unique and outstanding color. It features two shaded flowers, golden overlaid copper-orange with brown centers and rusty orange undersides that delicately mature to soft orange. The center disk is covered with golden pollen that attracts butterflies. Blooms for weeks from midsummer to fall and grows up to 4 ft. tall (120 cm)

A top performer that is perfect for the late summer garden, Lobelia cardinalis (Cardinal Flower) is a popular, upright, clump-forming perennial boasting a profusion of flower spikes densely packed with brilliant, cardinal red, two-lipped blossoms, 2 in. long (5 cm), from midsummer to early fall. Borne on erect, alternate-leafed stalks rising above a rosette of lance-shaped, glossy bright green leaves, this architectural plant adds vertical interest to the landscape. Extremely hardy, low care, and fairly pest and disease-free, Cardinal Flower tends to be short-lived, although it may self-seed in ideal growing conditions (without becoming invasive)!

Tall and vigorous, Kniphofia 'Nobilis' is a late-flowering perennial with long spikes of glowing orange-red, tubular flowers, gradually fading to yellow in late summer to early fall. Changing color as the flower matures, this robust, evergreen perennial displays the deepest shades in bud and fades as the flower opens, resulting in a bicolor look. Virtually disease free, this favorite of hummingbirds is also drought, deer and rabbit tolerant.
