The area landscapers are wrapping up their summer maintenance projects and begin to focus more on plantings for their customers. At Weston Nurseries, the choices and quantity of plant material available during the late summer is second only to April. We begin to harvest our evergreen trees such as pine, spruce and hemlock and many recent deciduous plants have pushed out new growth and are ready for sale. We tend to have one of the most complete lines of plant choices during this time of year. We can afford to stock our sales areas with a tremendous selection of plant stock.
Late summer is one of the best times to plant.
The plant's roots have time to establish before the first frost and store the energy required to give them a strong start next spring. One thing you may want to consider when doing a fall planting is the mix of late season and early season flowering shrubs and perennials. A combination of early blooming evergreen azaleas and rhododendrons, summer blooming deciduous azaleas and later-season blooming perennials and shrubs will create an environment of continuous flowering. To better plan our your planting, please request our catalog on this web site. It is one of the best resources for your planning and will offer many additional choices as well as a comprehensive flowering chart.
