from "Joanne" contains these words:

My mixed border is lacking pizzaz at the moment. I'm anticipating lots of
colour from late summer into autumn (sedum, rudbeckia, aster, anenome,
echinacea, verbena bonariensis), but it's become glaringly obvious that I've
not planted anything for this time of year.

So, what colourful perennials are in full bloom in your gardens right now
(particularly in North West England)?

In west Scotland;

gaillardia "Burgundy"
iris ensata
argyranthemum "Jamaica primrose"
sisyrynchium grandiflorum
various hebes
various herbaceous geraniums
various hemerocallis
various fuchsias
various sages
osteospermum Natalie
libertia
papaver "Royal wedding", about to start a second flowering
astrantia
anthemis
inula hookeri
primula florindae
tradescantia Red Grape
catananche caerulea (about to open)
