D-nut - did you just mentioned the magic word - DAHLIA??!! LOL!
What blooms in summer aside from roses? Hmmm, obviously Dahlias, then I got the lilies. Don't even ask me how many I have. every nook and crannies got lilies on them. LOL! Hydrangeas, Guillardas, rudbeckias, leucanthemums, helenium, salvias, yarrows, and of course echinaceas! Phlox - also added newer varieties this year. Also started on newer varieties of Hollyhocks. Hibiscus - just recently received hybrids from a co-op on the 'other' site. Then some annuals - sunflowers, verbenas. I can't think of anything else
Additional fall flowering plants would be mums, NY & New England asters, and Montauk Daisies.

Here's a Figaro (Dwarf) dahlia.
