Many gardens will start to fade in the coming weeks, but there is a way out for gardeners who want to keep their plots "alive". Some plants are easy to plant and will bloom until the fall.

Experts recommend the most popular late-flowering plants. It is reported by Express.co.uk.

Heleniums

Sun-loving heleniums add abundant color that flashes from midsummer to fall. There are hundreds of varieties to choose from, from bright yellow to red and bright orange.

Penstemon

These are gorgeous trumpet-shaped flowers surrounded by green foliage, available in dark purple, pink, white and blue colors. It is an ideal plant for mixed and herbaceous beds and is loved by bees. Penstemon thrives in well-drained soils and is very drought tolerant.
