Its the Time of the Season - to Plant!!

Fall is traditionally a great time to plant – why? For a few simple reasons:

Cooler Weather
The lack of intense heat makes the job not only easier on install for the gardener, but also equals less stress on the plant. One big reason is that it needs less water overall and has more time to establish before the hot summer heat kicks in. Watering well upon planting is still key, but the likelihood of drying out is a lot less likely in this time of year. Proper soil prep and mulching is still required for ultimate success!

Plant is Dormant
You know how the doctor knocks you out for major surgery? Well, planting or moving a shrub or tree is stressful on the plant, so its best done while the plant is not in its aggressive growing season. Planting in a dormant period means less pressure on the plant to quickly establish itself in order to maximize its growing season. Basically, it just plain hurts less!

Your Landscape Will Be Waiting
Last, but not least, if you plant now, your landscape will be ready for enjoyment come Springtime! Happy planning!
