Fantastic Fall is Here
Fall in Houston is like a second Spring. It brings new life the Yard and Garden. Warm days and cool nights stimulate vigor and renewed life.
It’s time for pumpkins and mums and bright colored flowers. Fall is the season of gardening, family, friends, and giving thanks.
Fall is actually the best time of year to plant. Fall planting is highly recommended because as the top of the plant begins to go dormant, the root system continues to grow. Leaf function slows and stops as days grow shorter, even in evergreens.
The plant’s roots, however, can now “concentrate” on growing, rather that supporting the moisture and other needs of the top part of the plant. This allows the plant to establish and then flourish in the spring. Your planting will be vigorous and strong by the time summer’s heat returns to Houston. If you’ve been thinking of replacing or adding landscaping, come to Houston Plants and Garden World for our robust selection of trees and shrubs. We offer the largest selection of locally grown plants inside FM 1960 and that makes a real difference.
