September Checklist
|
- We have been busy keeping our nursery stock looking its best now that the end of the growing season is here. So far we've had a great season. Our fall mums have arrived bursting with flower buds and our flowering kale, straw, pumpkins, and gourds will be here shortly. There are still ways to bring color into the garden this fall! Check out our ornamental grasses, sedums, and asters!
- Our quart perennials have come in looking better than ever. You'll find hundreds of varieties all on sale at 25% off regular price.
- Now is the prime time to contact us with your landscape ideas and projects you want done this year. Whether it is new installations, or fall maintenance and clean up our designers still have time to meet with you to discuss your ideas so you can relax in the comfort of your finished landscape this fall. We have several design options available to our customers. Please call us at 507-289-3039 for more information.
- Pull out annual plants and vegetables as they fade or are killed by frost.
- Plant colorful fall ornamentals, such as mums, flowering cabbage, and kale.
- After a hard frost, dig up tuberous tender plants such as begonias for drying and storing over winter.
- Continue to water the garden during dry spells. Consistent watering in fall helps prepare plants for winter.
- Cool fall weather is ideal for sowing grass seed and repairing thin patches of lawn.
- When planting fall bulbs, don't forget to add a little bonemeal to the soil to encourage root development.
- Move tender container plants into a sheltered location when frost is expected. This strategy will allow you to enjoy them longer.
- Begin to plant bulbs for a great display next spring.
- Set up birdfeeders and begin to feed the birds if you didn't do so all summer.
