EPA Level III Ecoregion
Central Appalachians
948 native plants for the Central Appalachians ecoregion (Johnstown area).
The Central Appalachians cover the steep forested plateau of West Virginia, eastern Kentucky, western Virginia, and the Pennsylvania highlands around Johnstown. Slopes are sharp, soils are thin and acidic, and elevation keeps summers cooler and winters longer than in the valleys on either side. Natives such as flame azalea, sweet azalea, heart-leaf foamflower, and bigleaf magnolia are forest-understory plants, which makes them a natural fit for the shaded, sloping yards that are normal here.
Conditions: Thin acidic soils on steep forested slopes, 40–50 inches of precipitation, cool summers and long cold winters at elevation.
Cities and areas: Johnstown, Charleston, Lexington, Morgantown, Beckley, Altoona.

Fall care in the Central Appalachians
What to do right now for plants commonly grown here. Each links to the full regional care guide for that species, with sources.
- Canadian goldenrod
Fall is Canada goldenrod's moment in Johnstown, with bright yellow blooms from August into October, right up to the average first frost in late September.
- Orange coneflower
Fall is decision time on cleanup. Bloom continues until the first frost, usually in early to mid October, and the seed heads that follow are useful bird food through the colder months.
- Garden phlox
By fall, garden phlox in Johnstown has typically finished its main bloom window and is heading into dormancy, which arrives earlier here than in lower elevation parts of Pennsylvania.
- Foxglove beardtongue
Fall arrives earlier in this higher part of western Pennsylvania, and foxglove beardtongue starts winding down by early autumn. The seed capsules that formed over summer are still holding on the stalks and add some structure once other perennials have browned. This is a reasonable window to divide crowded clumps or direct sow fresh seed, since the plant handles our winters without trouble.
- Oswego tea
Fall comes early in Johnstown, with the average first frost around mid-October, so clean up bee balm before then.
- Wild allspice
Fall is spicebush's showiest season in Johnstown gardens, female plants carry shiny red berries into the yellow leaf color, and both fade as the area's first frost approaches in mid to late October.
- Dense blazing star
In fall the spikes fade to tan and the foliage yellows as the plant heads into dormancy. Johnstown's growing season runs on the shorter side, with the average first fall frost landing around October 3, so fall planting works best done early, by mid September, to give roots time to settle before the ground cools. This is also when to decide whether to leave the seedheads standing for birds and winter shape.
- Spotted geranium
Fall brings cooler nights and, on many years, a touch of bronze red color to the foliage before it dies back. The first fall frost on the Allegheny Plateau around Johnstown typically arrives by early October, so plan any final planting, dividing, or transplanting for early to mid fall while the soil is still workable and warm enough for roots to settle before the ground cools. Rake fallen tree leaves lightly over the crown rather than removing them entirely, since a thin natural leaf layer mimics the woodland floor mulch this plant is used to.
- Queen of the prairie
Fall arrives earlier and cooler in the Johnstown area than in warmer lowland regions. First frost typically lands by mid to late October, and foliage dies back soon after.
- Eastern purple coneflower
Fall arrives early in Johnstown compared to warmer climates, with the first frost typically landing in early to mid October. This is the season where you choose whether to cut coneflowers back or leave them standing for winter.
