Keep your outdoor space looking great into late summer and beyond, and help pollinators, with late-blooming plants. Add daisies, such as echinacea, rudbeckia and helenium, or agastache to pots and borders. For ponds, use long-flowering aquatic plants, such as water mint. Deadhead plants like buddleja that don't produce useful seedheads to encourage them to flower again.
