Fall Planting



This weekend is perfect for fall planting.  There is no freeze expected, making the soil just right.  Great timing before all of the family visits for Thanksgiving!  I’ve listed a few tips below.

  • Make sure to amend your soil.  I recommend Nature’s Helper.  
  • Plant raised beds to ensure proper drainage. 
  • Mulch, mulch, mulch.  I prefer pine bark mini nuggets.  They retain their color.  Mulch serves three purposes.
  1. Aesthetic Value
  2. Moisture Retention
  3. Weed Exclusion
  • Have fun and enjoy the beauty of it when you’re done!


Myself and another employee here are planning to re-do our landscape outside of our office in Gainesville.  We hope to get started in the next week or so.  I’ll post before and after pictures when we’re done!
Have a great weekend!
