Now Is the Time
To Start Plans
For Fall Garden
You Can Depend
on Chrysanthemums
for Late Blooms
BY ISABEL FUCKER

nOES your garden dwindle IN
~ September and look posi-
lively respondent in October
and November? We spoke Fri
day of dividing chrysanthemums
now for bloom in the fall. That's
one plant group that can be de-
pended on for bloom from
August through October.
But there are several others
which though not as well known
or as widely used are just as
colorful.
These include heleniums,
perennial asters, both tall and
dwarf ( or m s, physostegia,
eupatorium. chelone and des-
medium.
Detroit evening times. (Detroit, Mich) 1921-1958, 1942-05-10
Because Why?

Mention physostegia to some
people and they will promptly
declare Il wouldn't have ii in
my garden" Because why? Be-
cause it spreads. But it can be
uprooted and it does bloom in
September.
There is a dwarf variety
which blooms in late October
and its brilliant rose color is so
welcome then, the slight amount
of work keeping it in bound is
not too much to pay for the dis
play.
Eupatorium (so-called hardy
ageratum) is another spreader.
But uprooting does little or no
good. Every millionth of an inch
of root sprouts-every seed
does too. Starting with one
plant, you will have too much
almost as soon as you have
enough.
The best solution to this
problem 1 know is that practiced
by a friend of mine. He plants
his eupatorium in the bottom of
scrub pals (old ones) and then
keeps the seed pods clipped. He
really has that plant licked.
