Why Fall is the Best Time for Landscape Planting
Learn why fall is perfect for planting: stronger roots, fewer pests, cooler weather, and vibrant spring blooms. Ideal season for trees, shrubs, perennials, and bulbs.
If you’re planning to add new plants to your landscape, fall is the best time to do it. Cooler temperatures, moist soil, and reduced heat stress help plants establish strong roots before winter.
Benefits of Fall Planting
✔ Better Root Growth – Trees & shrubs establish roots before dormancy.
✔ Cooler Temperatures – Reduces stress on newly planted vegetation.
