Here at Yard Market Nursery, we often get asked about when is the best time to plant trees and shrubs. While majority of people will think that spring and summer would be the best time, but everyone forgets about fall! There are many benefits to planting in the fall time that will give your landscape an added boost before the official end of the season. Now is the perfect time to add curb appeal, bring color to your yard, and more this fall which all can be found here at Yard Market Nursery. Here are some key aspects why we believe fall is the best time to plant and add to your landscaping.
Cooler Weather Means Less Stress
One of the biggest advantages of planting in the fall is the cooler weather. The scorching heat of summer is behind us, which means less stress on newly planted trees and shrubs. The cool temperatures of fall help reduce water loss from leaves, giving plants a chance to establish roots without the extra pressure of intense heat. Plus, with cooler air comes warm soil, and that combination is perfect for promoting root growth.
End of Season Sales and Selection
In this time of the season, we have so many sales and discounts going on at the nursery! We can offer quantity discounts on all trees and shrubs which means more money in your pocket and more value for your dollar. We want this to not only be cost-effective for us but also for you. We keep you in mind all the time! Here at Yard Market Nursery, you can find great deals on a wide variety of trees and shrubs since we are trying to clear our inventory before the end of the season.
Less Competition from Weeds and Pests
It seems like every season we deal with more and more pesky insects that are trying to take advantage of your newly planted trees and shrubs. The good part about planting in the fall time is that greatly reduces the risk of insect damage because of the cooler weather. Most of them have completed their life cycles unlike during the spring and summer seasons. Weeds grow slower in the fall season due to the cooler temperatures which makes them easier to maintain when keeping up with your landscaping.
These are just some of the reasons why we believe planting in the fall is the most beneficial time for you and your landscape. With cooler weather brings ideal growing conditions which means the chances for long-term success greatly increases. Now is the time to invest in your landscaping and Yard Market Nursery is a great place to start. Come stop on by and we would love to spend time with you about what trees or shrubs would benefit you the most.
Happy Planting!
