 GARDENING
Autumn is a great time to plant trees, shrubs, bulbs, perennials, grass seed and sod.
Do not prune Azaleas, Rhododendrons and other spring flowering shrubs because they have
already set their buds for next year's blooms.
Feed evergreens (Hollies, Boxwoods and Yews) and deciduous trees (Maples, Oaks and Ash)
with a tree & shrub food.
Time to transplant peonies or divide them if you wish to multiply your plants.
September is the best month of the entire year to seed your lawn. This includes both
seeding a new lawn and reseeding (overseeding) an established lawn to make it thicker and
healthier.
You can still seed beets, radishes, turnips, cabbage, broccoli, Brussels sprouts and
leaf lettuce.
Winter pansies, flowering Kale, flowering Cabbage, and fall mums can be planted now. |
