As the vibrant hues of autumn paint the landscape, fall emerges as an ideal season to revitalize your outdoor space. With cooler temperatures, consistent rainfall, and fewer pests, fall offers a unique window of opportunity for planting, maintenance, and preparation for the upcoming seasons.
Planting for a Thriving Spring
Fall is the perfect time to plant a variety of plants, including trees, shrubs, perennials, and bulbs. Cooler temperatures reduce transplant shock, allowing plants to establish strong root systems. Consistent rainfall provides ample moisture, minimizing the need for frequent watering. Additionally, fall planting often results in earlier and more vibrant blooms the following spring.
