You should see some nice looking Heucera (caral bells) at this time of the year, they are grown mostly for their colourful foliage, although they do also flower.
these make a nice centre piece for tubs and planters and can be planted in garden, perennial borders at the end of the season.
bedding begonias and buzzie lizzie make a good splash of colour, as do geraniums in a sunny spot.
Some trailing plants like lobelia will also look good, you'l probably find some mixed tub and basket, mixed collections that may include these, which can be good value too.
Watch out for frosts that have been forcast in some areas!
