What’s in Bloom

Late-season perennials like goldenrod, ironweed, and helianthus bring classic autumn color and food for wildlife, while roses bloom until the first frost. Japanese maples begin to show soft reds and oranges, and seed heads, pods, and grasses add rich texture against evergreen trees and camellia foliage.

“The City of Mobile sits in the middle of the biologically richest part of North America.”

—E.O. Wilson, Alabamian and Pulitzer Prize Winner
