Fall is one of my favorite times in the garden. With cooler temperatures prevailing, the garden seems to come alive again.

This is a great week to buy and plant daffodil and other spring flowering bulbs. And it is not too late to add new trees, shrubs and perennials to your garden. The advantage of planting in September or October is that the rains are more likely to do your watering for you.

Plant these bulbs now for beautiful blooms next year!

I have one of those flower gardens that people pause and take pictures of. But every time someone passes my garden and compliments my flowers, I have to stop myself from saying, “It’s really a lot easier than it looks.
