The Autumn of 2008 is here. The leaves are changing colour, the days are shorter, and the nights are getting cold.

Although plants will still have a need for water on dry, windy, sunny days, the heat is down making it a great time to plant and transplant in the garden. New plants and transplants will have a chance to get established before the winter and will be well prepared for the dry season of next summer.

This too, means it is a great time to do overseeding. If you’ve got a lawn that you want to keep looking lush, now is a great time to apply new seed.

And, think about next years blossoms. Now is the ideal time to plant bulbs so your garden will burst into spring!

So, although it is getting cooler outside, the gardening season is not yet done! Contact us if you need assistance, coaching, or more information about fall gardening.
