Planting new trees, shrubs and perennials is an exciting process. As gardeners, we tend to refine and add to our borders and pot displays every year. More plants can only be a good thing, right? If you are anything like me, you won't be able to resist adding a few new plants to your yard, especially after visiting a local garden store and admiring what's on offer.
Fall is an ideal time to do this. The soil remains warm from sunny summer months, rainfall is high and the evenings are mild. As a professional gardener, I have planted many thousands of plants, and getting them in the ground in October and November yields good results.
