Hi, PrimroseSue, You may know the 'coffee filter method' under the name "Deno method" of seed starting. The above link is to a thread that gives a lot of info on it. I have used it in the past and find it quite do-able~~even for a seed starting klutz like me!

As for late summer blooms here in Ohio, Zone 6, in recent years I have had really good luck with a late re-blooming (September/October) short/median purple iris (of course, I can't find the pic when I need it.), a few late blooming daylilies and right right now we have our perennial hibiscus 'Plum Crazy' in bloom.

FYI for more ideas on late bloomers for midwest gardens, I made some more notes in my DG Diary...
