Fall is the season to put roots down. 🌿
In Texas, cooler fall temperatures create a unique window for planting. With less heat and evaporative stress, newly planted trees, shrubs and perennials have time to settle in and establish their roots before summer arrives.
Cooler temperatures give plants a chance to settle in without the stress of summer heat. As growth above ground slows, roots can continue developing in the still-warm soil, allowing plants to establish now so they’re ready to take off when spring arrives.
And it’s not just trees and shrubs. Fall is a great time to plant perennials, ornamental grasses, cool-season annuals, vegetables, herbs and bulbs.
Plant now, and let spring start differently.
Your spring garden starts in fall. 🍂
