I have rudbeckia, also sedum autumn joy and kaffir lillies all perennials
Sedums (the iceplant ones rather than the little ones) are very good for late flower power as cathy says. Buddleias are always good and flower well into autumn. The late flowering Asters are also good - lots of different varieties, sizes and colours.
I live in west central Scotland - not where that photo is...
