How much time left to plant perennials?

| How did it get to be the middle of September? I swear it was August 10th yesterday.
So, having gotten a little behind in my work, (like the butcher who backed into the meat grinder) how long do y'all think I have to try to get some perennials in yet this fall?
I'm more or less in Cedar Rapids.
Thanks!

| If you come across a good buy, plant and mulch! |

| Go for it! I think we have at least a couple more good weeks. Make sure to water well and I'd mulch as well. |
