September

• Fall is the best time to plant cool weather vegetables. You will get the best yield in fall on vegetables like; broccoli, cauliflower, cabbage, and other cool weather plants.
• Cut back any summer annuals or perennials that are done blooming. Fill in that space with some fall color.
• Mums, Pansies, Snapdragons and Fall Magic annuals are arriving at most garden centers.
• If you have plants that need to be transplanted now is one of the best times to do so.
• Most perennials need to be divided every few years. If your perennials are getting too large for their area, split them in half.
• If you have not done any mulching this year make sure you get it done now. This will help retain water and suppress weeds.
• Spring bulbs need to be planted in the fall, so they are ready to bloom come spring.
• Place any tropical plants inside that you want to winter over. Make sure you treat the plant for insects before bringing it inside. We do not want any bugs inside.
