Create a fall planter with a New York aster showpiece for a beautiful late-season look.

Even in the fall, garden centers have lots of great plants to fill a late-season container. And if you are bored with the classic garden mum in a fall planting (or don’t know how to work one of those big beauties into an arrangement), try a New York aster. This plant has the same mounding habit as a garden mum, but looser branching so it’s easier to mix into a container with other plants. It also comes in shades of purple and lavender, a lovely cool complement to warm fall colors.
