right through to frost.
As the heat begins to wane, Carey, who taught horticulture at Temple University for years, is in back-to-school mode. That means taking field trips, visiting gardens in search of ideas, especially during the seasons that often stump us. She has taken inspiration from public gardens such as Wave
Why ‘September is the new May’ when it comes to planting flowers
“But in general, everyone agrees that a garden that looks really pretty, nice, joyful,” Carey said, “has a variety of shapes of flowers, textures of
headed may not be the stuff of viral social me dia images. And it may not inspire a weary gardener’s delight.
She advises us to look more closely at form in the garden — including the forms of flowers. How often do we gardeners consciously consider that?
The pollinators do. A diver sity of insects responds to a range of shapes. Each species’ evolution alongside particular native plants has engineered intimate relationships; flowers are not thatThinkone-size-fits-all.abouttheformsinflorescencestake:

Spherical choices include globe amaranth (Gom phrena globosa) and rattle snake master (Eryngium yuc cifolium). Great blue lobelia (L. siphilitica) offers up vertical spikes, as does obedient plant (Physostegia virginiana).
Flower shape, scale, color
Carey, a popular lecturer and author, is former senior director of the Pennsylvania Horticultural Society’s Mead owbrook Farm, a public garden in a historic estate setting. So it is no surprise that her recipe for a design with staying power relies on strategic plant choices.Italso involves something that gardeners too often skip: proactive maintenance tactics that help coax the maxi mum output from flowering plants — even annuals planted months ago. At her garden in Pennsylvania, the nasturtiums are still at it, welcoming fall as enthusiastically as they do at Giverny — painter Claude Monet’s garden in France — where they lead visitors down the literal garden path into the next season. You just have to know the trick.

Dahlias and variegated Canna Bengal Tiger in a bed featuring the Tatarian aster (Aster tataricus), all backed by the perennial sunflower Helianthus maximiliani Santa Fe at the Chanticleer Garden, in Wayne, Pa. Your garden may not be looking Instagram ready at the moment, but don’t give up: There’s time for more color before the first frost. (LISA ROPER, COURTESY OF CHANTICLEER / THE NEW YORK TIMES)
The title of Carey’s new book makes her approach clear: “The Ultimate Flower Garden er’s Guide: How to Combine Shape, Color, and Texture to Create the Garden of Your Dreams.”Coloris just one element of her strategy — and it’s not even the first thing on her list. Although it may be what many gardeners focus on when they’re plant shopping, a color palette alone will not ensure cohesion in the garden.
But don’t stop now. As Jenny Rose Carey, a longtime flower gardener and vocal believer in the possibilities of the weeks ahead, puts it, “September is the new May.”
Hill in New York City, where fall has long been a celebrat ed season, and Chanticleer Garden in Wayne, Pennsylva nia, where last month and this month are still prime time, too. How do you keep your garden going strong until the frosty end? Start by looking at landscapes like those for clues.
Of course, in the garden, May is a moment neither short on color nor marred by what she calls “the crispy bits.” (First ac tion item: Tease those out with your snips and push ahead.)

Goldenrods common in European gardens
Goldenrod is a beautiful plant, whether it’s blanketing a field or standing tall in a perennial flower bed.
LANTING GOLDEN rod in the garden may seem as crazy as “car rying coals to Newcas tle.” (Historically, Newcastle, in England was once a center for distribution and sale of coal; they had plenty there.)
Goldenrod can be grown from seed or purchased from a nursery that specializes in perennials. The easiest and quickest way to get plants is to dig up wild ones. Do this now, or else mark particularly at

Look closely at the individual florets in a head and you’ll agree with the botanists. Separating the species within the goldenrod genus, Solidago, is no easy task and gives even botanists sleepless nights. For garden purposes, plant size and flower type are enough to know. “A Peterson Guide to Wildflow ers” classifies the flower heads as: plumelike, elm-branched, club-like showy, wand-like slender, and flat-topped.

Showy Goldenrod (Solidago speciosa). The 2- to 6-foot plant is topped by a “club” of yellow flowers. Stout Golden rod (S. squarrosa) is similar, the most obvious difference being its smaller stature.

tractive plants for digging next spring. Once planted, golden rod needs little care beyond division of the clump every few years as vigor declines.

Goldenrods are common denizens of European gardens, perhaps more cherished there because Europe has but three species, as compared our greater than 60 species.
One look at the infertile fields which wild goldenrods call home will convince anyone that growing this plant does not require a green thumb.

Don’t forget the dahlias Carey’s garden, called Northview, is cottagelike in style, befitting her 1887 Arts-and-Crafts home. Her flower-packed designs aren’t heavy on ornamental grasses or bold-foliage tropical plants such as elephant ears (Aloca sia and Colocasia), bananas and cannas, two plant groups that extend the season until the first frost at Wave Hill and Chanticleer.Dahliasare Carey’s “bold beauties,” her late-season mainstay. Their range of shapes is an object lesson in the mix-it-up advice she gives about flower forms. There are spiky cactus types and frilly anemones, some with a single row of petals like a daisy and others positively overstuffed. Similarly spherical flowers are an element she conscious ly adds to the garden every season, from spring alliums to the globe thistle (Echinops ritro), rattlesnake master, globe amaranth and more. She lets frost blacken and knock down the dahlias — “a very sad day in the garden” — and waits a week before cut ting back the stems to about 6 inches above ground and dig ging the tubers. The uprooted plants rest on crates for a few days, stem ends down, so excess moisture drains out. Then they are rolled up in newspaper and stashed in the cellar for winter.
most of flowers with subtle differences, such as Rudbeckia Henry Eilers, with its quilled petals. Here’s where color can really help at a time when there is often too much yellow: Mix it up with the orange-and-yellow flowers of Rudbeckia hirta Irish Eyes, with their showy green centers, or the red-and-yellow petals of the annual blanket flower (Gaillardia pulchella).
There is another way that September is like May, Carey noted: It is a time when we are busy working, not just admiring. Those faded bits are trimmed back and then back again, although care should be taken to leave behind anything that birds (or people) may enjoy come winter.

A. The optical instrument company Rollei was found ed in 1920 by Paul Franke and Dr. Reinhold Heidecke in Braunschweig, Germany. The camera had two separate lenses: one for the view and one for taking the photo. Their Rolleiflex TLR (twin-lens re flex) camera was sold in 1929. Paul Franke died in 1950. The letter would have to have been written between 1929 and 1950. Letters signed by famous people are collectible and valuable. The letter could be of interest to camera collectors

“lamp oil” is purified kerosene, so it is safe for kerosene lamps. You can find commercial lamp oils with colors or fragrances added, but we do not recom mend them. They can damage your lamp or leave stains. Keep the lamp and its fuel out of reach of children or pets. Use a wick that is long enough to keep the flame from reaching the oil. Treat the lamp like a lit candle or any other open flame. Do not use it in an area where you have detected gas. Use it in a well-ventilated room and keep it on a firm surface where it will not be bumped or knocked over.

In 1909, car enthusiast John Douglas-Scott-Mon tagu commissioned sculptor Charles Sykes to create a mas cot for his Rolls-Royce. Sykes made a sculpture of a woman bent at the waist, leaning for ward so her robe flows behind her like wings. The model was Eleanor Thornton, Montagu’s secretary and, secretly, lover.
By 1911, Sykes’s sculpture was made the official RollsRoyce hood ornament. “Spirit of Ecstasy” is its official name, but it is also known as the “Flying Lady” or the “Silver Lady.” The hood ornament was originally silver plated, but has since been made in

Tip: Do not store vintage fabrics in unheated attics or basements or areas that may get hot. The best storage is between 65 and 75 degrees.
A. Even if you can afford to buy everything at once, it probably is not a great idea, because you risk ending up with a showroom look, which is never appealing. The goal is to be your authentic (and perhaps contradictory) self, not to buy into someone else’s one-size-fits-all uniformity. So aim for a home that looks like it was assembled over time. And the best way to achieve that — short of hiring people to scour online auc tions, rural flea markets and vintage shops — is to take the time. Buy pieces you love and want to keep around. Enjoy the process of discovery. Find inspiration in your travels. To create some coherence, before you start out, decide on an overall style and color scheme. Make mood boards from magazine clippings, visit blogs, comb through Insta gram and roam décor stores, antiques markets and garage sales. Using these inspirations, lay a foundation of basic items like a sofa, coffee table, dress ers and the largest table your kitchen will accommodate — it can function as dining area, workstation, extra counter space and family hub. The rest willOh,follow.andyou’ll need a mat tress (perhaps I should have led with that?). It’s expensive, but it has a major advantage: No one will see it, so it doesn’t have to match anything that comes later.
Q. I’d like to install a marble countertop in my kitchen but want to know: Is marble really sustainable?
and the process can create waste in the form of off cuts (oddly shaped leftover piec es) and copious dust. Many coveted types of marble come from Italy — including the city of Carrara, source of the block from which Michelan gelo’s David was carved. But transporting something so weighty burns up a lot of fuel. If you are building something with a long intended life span, marble might be a good choice. But if you’re working on a countertop you plan to replace in five to 10 years, you might want to consider alternatives.Oratleastcut the distance that the marble needs to travel and buy American. The Vermont Danby quarry is in New England, and marble produced there was used to build the Jefferson Memorial.
A. During the 1950s, the Currier & Ives pattern by Royal China was given away as premiums through the A&P stores and Winn-Dixie. They are now found in virtually every antique mall and thrift store. Their prices are starting to creep up, so buying a whole set is becoming pricey — at least $10 a dish, and as much for bowls and serving pieces. Currier & Ives pieces were pro duced up until the Royal China Company closed in 1986. Most of the Currier & Ives sets are blue, as you mentioned. In addition to the rarer pink, you can also find green and brownon-white sets. The rarer colors are more expensive.

A. Consider a folding screen. It can solve a multi tude of problems, and add a dash of glamour to your home. While the screen can’t replace an actual wall or door, it can be very effective at creating the illusion — or delusion — of separation.
A. There are plenty of switches out there that are a huge step up from the ones you’ll find in typical home center inventory. What sets these switches apart is a serious reduction in plastic. Many are made of stain less steel or brass; they are pleasant to touch. Instead of modern rocking toggles, which seesaw from off to on, they operate with levers that have a substantial feel and a very rewarding “click.” Like wise, dimmers operate with satisfying metal knobs.

How to decorate an empty space
Positioning a screen in front of a drafty window creates a cozy spot for an armchair (in French, folding screens are called “para vents,” or “wind blockers”). Or you can use one to filter out an unattractive view without cutting off the light. A screen in a corner prevents the divan in front of it from “floating” in space. In a large room, a
Forbes & Lomax offers lever, knob and push-button switches, as well as a socalled Invisible Lightswitch, which combines a metal switch with an acrylic plate. (Plastic gets a pass here; the transparency is useful when you have colored or patterned wallpaper and want the beau ty to show through.) Buster & Punch switches have a slightly more industrial look, with knurled switches and dim mers that feature a carved texture. (And the white anodized metal finish on the company’s dimmer switch is the last word in clean and contemporary.) The switches and plates from Futagami — a Japanese company founded in 1897 that specializes in sand-cast brass — have a subtle texture and a patina that will further develop over time. Find them through Housework.

There are multiple factors to weigh when deciding whether to use marble, including where the marble will be quarried, and the intended life span of the project you’re doing. (KLAS FAHLÉN/THE NEW YORK TIMES)

central screen allows you to delineate a small seating area (or space for a sleeping guest). Almost any material is fair game for a screen. The Ital ian-Danish team GamFratesi wove leather into geometric patterns for screens by Pol trona Frau, available in two-, three- and four-panel models, from $7,150. Alvar Aalto did a wood-slat version in 1936 for Artek ($2,375 from Finnish Design Shop), and in 1946, Charles and Ray Eames designed a screen in molded plywood for Herman Miller (on sale for $3,295 from Hive at press time). For screens in nearly any style and pattern, 1stDibs is a veritable treasure trove.
