There is nothing more magical than the changing of colors you see from summer into fall. The leaves, the plants, everything just transforms into warm brown, red, and golden colors. This season, make sure your home and lawn are filled with colorful plants, mums and decorum.
Mums are available in a variety of colors that encompass the true feeling of fall. There are two routes to take when planning your fall planting. Many people choose to work with a landscape designer to plan a color theme accordingly, while others choose to arrange mums in planters and leave them around the front of their home. Either way is a beautiful and easy way to add color around your home and be festive for fall.
Once your mums start to die in late fall, you know it is time to plant your spring bulbs. One of the biggest mistakes people make is forgetting to plant their bulbs in the fall. By November you should have your bulbs planted in order for them to be ready to bloom by springtime. While it’s hard to plan ahead for the spring season so soon, it’s something to really consider when it comes to your bulbs now. Once the winter season hits, you will be thankful to see your bulbs bloom at the first sign of spring. It brings hope and excitement that winter is passing, and that the warmer weather is arriving.
Working with a landscape designer professional will help you to plan accordingly, select the right mums and bulbs, choose the right colors to compliment the home and lawn, and create the largest impact possible with little cost. Whatever you choose to do with your home, there’s no better way to bring in the fall season than with rich colors and seasonal ornaments. With summer on its way out the door and fall arriving, it’s time to start thinking about apple picking, and pumpkin patches, cider, sweaters and leaves changing colors. Enjoy this beautiful season!
