October 2020
Hello October!
Ah, the relief from the heat has arrived. Our Colorado mornings and evenings are crisp and the days are filled with beautiful color. So far, we are having a beautiful Colorado fall and we are enjoying every minute of it! We always look forward to breaking out the sweaters and the general lower activity level that goes along with this time of year, hopefully you do too.

General Landscaping
  • It's fall cleanup time!!!
  • Add mulch to the base of trees & shrubs to prevent moisture evaporation
  • After a hard frost wrap your tree trunks to prevent winter sunscald damage.
  • Set up a schedule to winter water your trees. Generally, landscape plantings will need to be watered a couple times a month when the temperature is over 40 degrees.
Shrubs, Perennials & Bulbs
  • Plant spring blooming bulbs
  • Cut back perennial flowers - if the foliage is disease free, add the cuttings to your compost pile
  • Dig up tender dahlias and gladiolas and store for next year
  • Apply mulch around your roses to protect them through the winter months.
Veggies, Fruit & Herbs
  • Continue to enjoy the fruits of your labor while the weather holds. 
  • Clean veggie beds and apply a moderate (1" - 3") layer of compost
  • Extend your season by adding a cold frame around your cool season crops
Annuals
  • Rough till your annual beds and add a layer of compost
  • Toss out spent summer annual plantings
  • Clean pottery and move to storage
