Fall for Fall GardeningBy Donna Fossum
of SAWSThe time of year that every gardener has been looking forward
to since the beginning of summer has officially arrived: Fall.
The cooler temperatures and shorter days make this the perfect time of year for gardening. And, the nurseries are luring us back to gather plants to renovate our landscapes. There are so many reasons to get out and garden. Take your pick!
• It’s the perfect time to plant trees and shrubs because the root systems have ample time to recover from transplanting and grow new roots. • Cooler temperatures reduce overall plant stress and increased rainfall this time of year reduces watering needs for new plantings. • Plants that barely survived the summer heat will celebrate the season with a new rush of fall color. • Pesky pests — especially mosquitoes — retreat due to cooler temperatures.
So get out and enjoy the wonderful fall weather. Your landscape will love you for it!
Donna Fossum is a conservation planner for San Antonio Water System.
