As summer begins to fade, many gardeners assume their gardens will soon go quiet. But not at Kiesler Farms! Fall is one of the most beautiful—and beneficial—times to add color and life to your landscape. Our selection of fall-blooming plants not only brightens porches, patios, and gardens through the cooler months but also provides essential support for pollinators preparing for winter.
Whether you're planning a fall fundraiser or simply looking to freshen up your home or garden, here’s what we grow at Kiesler Farms:
A true fall favorite, asters bloom in late summer through early fall and bring cheerful purples, blues, and pinks to your garden. Their daisy-like shape attracts native bees, butterflies, and other pollinators, making them a must-have for anyone cultivating a pollinator-friendly garden.
Planting Tip: Space asters 1–3 feet apart for good air flow and to reduce the risk of mildew. They love full sun and well-drained soil.
Also known as Nippon Daisies, these classic white flowers with glossy green leaves bloom from September until the first frost. They’re a timeless choice for fall displays and continue to impress even in chilly weather.
Planting Tip: Cut them back in early summer to promote full, bushy growth later in the season.
Our specialty and most popular fall crop! We grow seven vibrant color families—yellow, orange, red, white, purple, pink, and coral—each with multiple bloom variations to offer color from August through October.
Mums are perfect for porches, patios, entryways, and garden beds. We offer:
8" mums, ideal for landscaping or medium-sized containers.
Hanging baskets and patio pots, filled with mums that thrive without needing to be planted in the ground.
Planting Tip: Place mums in full sun and water regularly to extend bloom life. For long-lasting enjoyment, avoid letting the soil dry out completely.
Fall flowers like mums, asters, and Montauk daisies aren’t just beautiful—they’re critical for supporting pollinators as they prepare for winter. By planting late bloomers, you’re helping bees, butterflies, and beneficial insects thrive well into the season.
Care Tip: Add compost when planting to improve soil and encourage strong root growth. Water deeply after planting, and mulch to retain moisture and protect roots through winter.
Whether you're planning a fundraiser that stands out, looking to decorate for fall, or creating a garden with seasonal beauty and purpose, Kiesler Farms has the vibrant, locally grown plants you need. We take pride in growing each plant right here in Southern Indiana—offering freshness, quality, and variety you won’t find at big-box stores.
