Our garden maintenance staff swear by "The Fall Clean-up." The time spent tidying your gardens in the fall saves you twice that amount of time in the spring. There is no actual harm caused to the garden if life conspires against you and "Fall Cleanup" doesn't happen - it just takes more of your time in the spring...
After a long, snowy winter, we all look forward to seeing those spring blooms peeking out and brightening up your garden. This is the time of year to start planning and planting for a successful spring in your garden. Planting bulbs in the fall is a great way to guarantee that spring colour...
You can plant up to 6 weeks before your ground freezes. Once the ground is frozen, root growth will cease almost entirely until spring, and that six-week window gives the plant time to get established enough to withstand cold and snow. The date that your ground actually freezes varies from year to year, of course, and some areas won’t have frozen ground at all. If you’re unsure, mid-November is a safe planting deadline for nearly everyone.
Ornamental grasses are versatile plants in any landscape that can provide four seasons of interest. Graceful habits and heights, with varied textures and colours. They can be grown in planters or in the garden.
