Ontario in the fall is spectacular. The brilliant red and orange maples, the meadows with golden rod and asters and sunflowers are all sights we look forward to seeing. You don't have to travel to the countryside though to enjoy the fall colours. Plant some late flowering shrubs, vines and perennials in your garden and enjoy the colour right through December.
