Answer
Fall and winter offer up many choices for the Sunset gardener. If you have a sunny location (when the sun is out), choose from pansies, violas, Iceland poppies, stock, snapdragons and primrose, just to name a few. Shady locations are more limited but the most popular and long-blooming are Cyclamen. They come in reds, whites, purples and pinks in both standard and dwarf varieties. You might also try Primula obconica (coming in December) for a shadier spot.
