🍂 Fall cleanup isn’t the only thing worth doing in the yard right now.

Cooler days can also create a great opportunity to get new plants established before winter 🌱

Sharing this helpful seasonal reminder for anyone planning a little fall gardening 👉

Fall Through the Eyes of a Gardener (Adams County) Fall is a great time to plan, prepare and plant a new garden space. Although the air temperatures begin to drop, the soil temperatures continue to stay warm for a bit longer. This allows plants’ roots to become established and because of the shorter days and cooler air temperatures, the top growth...

🌿 Check whether your plant blooms on old wood or new wood.
Some shrubs form next season’s flower buds on older growth. Pruning at the wrong time can mean cutting off those buds before they ever bloom.

🌸 Be careful with spring-flowering shrubs.
Plants like lilacs, forsythia, azaleas, and some hydrangeas often set their flower buds well before spring, so a heavy fall trim could mean fewer flowers next season.

✂️ Late-season pruning can also trigger fresh growth.
That tender new growth may not have enough time to harden off before colder weather arrives, making it more vulnerable to damage.

A little timing now can mean a lot more blooms next spring. 🧡

𝐇𝐞𝐥𝐥𝐨, 𝐟𝐚𝐥𝐥! 🍂 Your yard’s seasonal reset starts now.

🍁 Clear thick leaf layers, then reuse the good stuff. Blow leaves off lawns and walkways, then shred clean, dry leaves for mulch—this helps keep turf from being smothered while giving garden beds a useful organic layer.

🌿 Prune with a purpose. Remove dead, damaged, diseased, or crossing branches, but save major reshaping for the right plant-specific season so you don’t cut off future blooms.

🌱 Keep mowing—but don’t scalp. Use a sharp mower blade and remove no more than one-third of the grass height at a time to reduce stress and help the lawn stay thick.

Here’s to making the most of every golden-hour yard day! 🧡

Fall doesn’t automatically mean mowing season is over. Keep mowing as needed and follow the one-third rule — remove no more than about one-third of the grass blade at a time.

In colder, snow-prone areas, you can gradually lower the mowing height in late fall to help reduce the risk of snow mold and vole damage. Just avoid scalping or cutting below about 2 inches 🌿

🧡 Let the grass — not the calendar — tell you when mowing season is over.
