Fall is typically seen as a time to wrap up the growing season and tie up the loose ends of the year, but any gardener that’s planted fall flower bulbs and perennials before knows that autumn is also a time of new beginnings. There’s no better time to get a jumpstart on your flower garden by planting the hardiest bulbs and perennials, which will spend the winter developing strong root systems, bursting from the soil with energy and vibrance come spring.

It’s never too early to start shopping for next season’s garden, and yours starts today with fall-planted bulbs and perennials. Right as you’re cleaning up your annual garden, tuck these corms, bulbs, and bare roots into the ground, and let nature do the rest. Right around the time you’ll be starting seeds, your fall-planted bulbs will be boasting glorious spring color.

Be sure to pair your daffodil and tulip plantings with Papver Orientale and lilies for early summer flowering just as the early bloomers are starting to die back. By the time that these early summer bloomers are spent, your annual flower garden will be starting to show. The elegant bearded iris and some other fall-planted perennials will bloom in early summer and show a second flush of color in autumn.

Who doesn’t love daffodils with their warm, sunny colors that signal the change of the seasons? Or the sultry tulips with their risque names that will have you romanticizing spring? Better yet, take your flower garden inside this winter with the lovely amaryllis or delicate paperwhite bulbs—simply plant these beauties in containers with gravel and water for fresh, fragrant blooms just in time for the holiday season.

Fall-planted bulbs and perennials make striking cut flowers in the vase—if you can stand to cut them. Just be sure to leave a few in the field for the hungry pollinators emerging from winter dormancy! Purchase fall bulbs like crocus and hyacinth if you love pollinators—bees and other insects are attracted to the nectar-rich, often sweet-smelling, brightly colored flowers.

Perennials, for all their beauty, are also functional in the garden. Edge your garden in deer-resistant siberian iris and alliums to help deter pests (although nothing really works quite as well as a seven-foot fence). Plant drought-tolerant hostas as a ground cover or border plant— the striking foliage contrasts well with a colorful flower garden. Choose a variety of bulbs and perennial flowers for a diverse garden, or plant more of the varieties that you already know and love!
