After last winter, there was a lot of damage to plants from snow being pushed upon plants.
The leaves have fallen off the trees and the perennial beds have died back and need to be cut back.
I received a question from a reader concerning mulching plants in the fall.
The leaves have turned color and now they are beginning to fall. Pine needles are dropping off the trees as the trees prepare for winter.
Sunday morning it was 28 degrees at the house. At that cold of a temperature, I guess we can say goodbye to the annual flowers.
On the warm and sunny days of the last few weeks, you may have noticed, on the sunny side of your house or garage, a lot of insects clustered on the wall.
The cold and raw weather has made most of us think cold winter weather can’t be too far off.
We have reached the end of September and we are still short a lot of rainfall.
We have continued to be in a dry weather pattern. As much as any of us dislike having rainy weather for a few days, we desperately need rain for our lawns and our gardens.
Mid September is here and there are a few garden chores that you should be doing now.
