Here’s this weeks three tips on what to do in thegarden during the month of October!

• Keep dead-heading pansies. The more pansies are dead-headed, the more they bloom.
• Consider planting frost-tolerant ornamental cabbages and kales. Their subtle colors and rose-like forms make a great substitute for summer annuals.
• Sow seeds of hardy flowers outdoors now on well-prepared ground. They may also be sown in outdoor pots. Some will sprout hardy seedlings that will start growing in Spring. Others will sit underground until Spring before sprouting.

IS FALL THE BEST TIME TO PLANT A TREE?

Another GREAT Question!

In this week’s archived episode from past seasons, the Garden Guru highlighted that Autumn stands out as perhaps the most favorable season for tree planting. During this period, as temperatures mellow, and a touch of humidity graces the air, trees find it considerably easier to establish themselves.

Lynn made it a point to bring something significant to the attention of our listeners – the realm of large trees! When we talk about large trees, we’re referring to those towering specimens reaching heights of 10 to 12 feet. In the world of horticulture, these trees fall under the category known as B & B. To uncover the meaning behind B & B in this context, have a listen to the Garden Guru’s tip below. And here’s a little hint: it’s not related to AIR B & B or anything to do with complimentary breakfast!
