Fall Timetable
September: Seed new lawns and overseed thin lawns early in the month. Apply a low nitrogen fertilizer, such as Bachman's Winterizer. Install sod and water frequently. Divide and replant perennials (Information sheets are available at Bachman's Garden Centers). Plant fall pansies and flowering cabbage/kale, fall-blooming chrysanthemums and asters. Spray stubborn broadleaf weeds. Plant evergreens and continue to water young trees and shrubs. Examine and treat house plants for pest problems before bringing them indoors. Plant daffodils late in the month. October: Remove dead annuals. Wrap young and thin-bark trees to protect them from sun scald and animal damage. Plant spring-flowering bulbs. Rake leaves to prevent lawn disease. Winterize the sprinkler system. Mow lawn as long as growth continues. Add shredded leaves to compost pile. November: Contact your designer to develop plans for spring landscaping. Remove garden debris. (Debris allows diseases and insects a place to survive the winter.) Protect roses and mulch perennials. Clean out eaves and downspouts. Plant large shade trees. Prepare snow removal equipment. Be sure plantings, especially new ones, are well watered until the ground freezes. Begin dormant pruning of ornamentals.
