The cool weather and bolstered winds hint at change. Summer’s vitality is beginning to wane, wilt and dull, soon to be replaced by vibrant, saturated hues, brisk air, and an accelerated pace in which nature wastes no time, and perfect growing conditions are exploited.
Fall is a particularly special time of year, and not solely because it’s my favorite season. It offers second chances, and, in some instances, is the preferred time in which to garden as Fall brings cooler weather, warmer soil temps, rainfall, and less weed competition. It is not just a time to reap and sunder. It’s a time to plant – trees, shrubs, perennials, and spring-flowering bulbs. It’s also the perfect time to renovate lawns with seed or sod or start a lawn anew.
Do not forsake Fall, and all it has to offer. The earth is more welcoming than at any other time of year, so seize the season! Contact Sweeney’s today for all your planting needs.
