Hello cooler weather! I thought we might not ever break that hot dry spell (in 2011 it lasted until the 3rd week of September). Now that we’ve turned the corner there are still plenty of opportunities for landscaping projects of all kinds. Here are some of the things that can be done now-
1. Landscape design and installation- fall is actually a great time in this area to plant. It’s much easier to acclimate new plants now than in the summer heat or even in the spring, with its harsh southwest winds and unpredictable weather. There are plenty of landscaping plants still available; a specially shrubs and trees.
2. Fall and winter color- Mums are on full display now and soon it will be time to plant the winter annuals – Snapdragons, Pansies, Violas, Stock, decorative Cabbage and Kale as well. While all the aforementioned are annuals, except the Mums, they will give you 7-8 months of beautiful vibrant color to cheer up the winter landscape.
3. Fall pruning and cleanup- Tree pruning, shrub trimming, bed clean out and clean up of autumn leaves are all on the list for this time of year.
Please call El Jardin now to schedule any one of the above activities as well as any other of the services that we offer such as irrigation repair or new system installation. We’ll be happy to bring out all your gardens and yards have to offer.
We look forward to serving you soon!
