Heaven's Garden Blog — Week of September 30, 2026

This week the weather finally cooled down, and the garden noticed before we did. Colors that had been holding back all summer started showing up with more depth, and two blooms in particular felt made for exactly this moment. Here's what we found.

KA's® Brittany's Favorite

As the temperatures have dropped, KA's® Brittany's Favorite has really come into its own.  This is one of those varieties that gets better in cooler weather — a true orange hue has become more pronounced the further we get into fall. One thing worth mentioning: on camera, the color tends to read a little more red than it actually is. The true orange doesn't fully translate on video, so this is a bloom that's even better seen in person.

RM Autumn Harvest

This one doesn't need much explaining — the name says it all. RM Autumn Harvest's coloring was made for this exact season, and right now, with the first real chill in the air, it's hitting its stride in the garden.
