Plantings of shrubs, trees and perennials in fall allow the plants to establish root systems without concentrating on top growth. The moderate temperatures and sufficient rainfall generally experienced in fall are ideal for development. September is an ideal month for seeding a lawn. Fertilizing your lawn in fall is very important. The root system in you lawn is able to store the nutrients giving you a thicker and greener lawn in spring without the flush of top growth common with nitrogen applications in spring.
Plants begin their move towards dormancy in fall.
Mother nature has fall on her calendar and it's just going to happen. Look for warm sunny days and cold frosty nights for best color. As the days get shorter, chlorophyll in foliage breaks down and the secondary pigments become dormant, giving us the colors of the season. Plant spring flowering bulbs like tulips and daffodils. Make sure to provide good drainage.
