Very nice arrangement. That looks like the real "Autumn Joy".
And yes, it is !
Attractive arrangement! They look better than most I've seen. What are the other plants with the Autumn Joy? Nice picture. Thanks.
The plants with the Autumn Joy are... Thin leafed Rhody - 'Aglo', Thin leafed Rhody - 'Dora Amateaus', Ilex Hetzi (Japanese Holly), Burning Bush, Coreopsis 'Zagreb', Blue Rug Juniper and Chrysanthemum 'Nicole'. I think that is all
That's a lot! I didn't realize there were so many there. Very pretty entry way with all those lovely plants.
Very nice plants. Those are some combinations I would like to try in my yard!
Help! I also have Autumn Joy (I just learned what it was on this page; thanks for the helpful & beautiful photo). How can I make them grow straight up? The stalks/stems on mine seem to grow out and then up, leaving a wide gap between stalks at the bases, if that makes any sense. I am a baby at gardening, and we just moved into a home that has great mature beds with a good variety of plants/flowers. I need help on how to maintain what is there. Also, what should I do with the plant when it is finished for the year. Thank you for any advice you have.
I love the sedum. However, how do I keep them from folding down? Mine start very upright, then fall on ground.
