Freshen flowers
In my column in The Baltimore Sun Thursday, I talk about freshening up your garden and your containers, replacing plants that look leggy or tired, adding fall color or filling bald spots in the garden with something new.
There isn't room in the newspaper to include pictures of all the plants I mention, so I thought I would post them here, on Garden Variety.

Probably due to the mild summer, my petunias haven't done that awful, leggy thing this year, for which I'm grateful!
