where you live. Depending on your zone, there might be different
planting times and overwintering recommendations. Be sure to check
each autumn plant's sun and water needs, but you likely want to start

establish roots before the first frost. And, don't forget to consider fall
flowers that attract bees and other pollinators.

your pruning shears and watering cans! With a little preparation and
guidance, it's time to plant your outdoor fall flowers — most of which
make for beautiful autumn flower bouquets and arrangements.

The quintessential fall flower, you
can pick up mums for (practically)
a dime a dozen at the grocery store.
Set the pots in bright, indirect light
