By John Walker


Have you taken into consideration whether you ought to be doing landscape planting for your shrubs, perennials, grass and other plants in the spring season or the fall? Most don't think about it. In truth, the most frequent thing our company hear from the clientele when it comes to putting together their landscaping is "we will wait until springtime to plant." This is a rather typical misconception.

Planting the landscaping during the fall is the ideal. The scorching temperatures of 2012 showed the importance of fall landscape planting more than every other year we have witnessed in an exceedingly long time.

This year proved to be incredibly severe for landscaping overall. A lot of people are calling the year "Landscaping Apocalypse." We've witnessed landscape clients who had been really dedicated to watering their landscape and performing what must be done to help keep every thing living end up losing a great deal of their plants. The most devoted landscaping enthusiasts ended the season having a large amount of their landscape die.

It turned out to be the spring rooted landscaping that was taking the hardest hit. An intriguing thing is the fact that there were not any kind of difficulties with people who planted during the fall time last year. Do you desire to know why that is? .

You'll need a sturdy root system for the plants and autumn planting will do just that. If you would like your landscape to thrive and live, a deeply rooted root system is a necessity. The thing is, the lower your root system goes into the ground, the more water you will find. Landscaping that has superficial roots will probably have difficulty staying alive during the burning summers.

Putting together their landscaping in the spring doesn't mean your landscaping will perish though. Should we have a good year you'll probably be fine. Nonetheless, this does offer testimony to the potential of autumn landscaping.

Consider how well your fall time planted landscape is going to do if we do have an outstanding year in 2013. With that said, if you take care of the landscaping now prior to the winter season, you'll have a good deal less needed maintenance and plant watering next year since the deep soil moisture content is going to be accomplishing most of the heavy lifting for you.

In conclusion, the regular misconception that springtime planting is the best way to go just isn't legitimate. Plus, you will probably only have to do half of the work maintaining and watering the landscaping that subsequent summer and spring.
