π Fall is secretly the absolute best time to spruce up your yardβeven better than spring!
If youβve been looking at a bare spot in your yard, wanting a little more privacy from neighbors, or just wishing your landscape had a bit more color, right now is the perfect time to plant trees and shrubs here in Central North Carolina.
You donβt need a green thumb to get great results this time of year. Here is why planting right now makes yard work so much easier:
Nature does the hard work: Because the scorching summer heat is gone, new plants donβt get stressed out. The soil is still nice and warm, which gives roots a cozy environment to settle in.
Less watering for you: Cooler fall days and seasonal rain mean you wonβt have to baby your new plants or run out with the hose every day.
A big head start for next year: While your plants look like they are resting on top, they are secretly growing a huge root system all winter. When next spring arrives, your plants will be strong, established, and ready to thrive!
