Timing Your Planting for Optimal Growth

Understanding the optimal timelines for planting is crucial for achieving successful growth. Each plant has specific seasonal requirements that align with temperature changes and daylight variations. Spring is often considered a prime time for planting many perennials, as the soil warms and moisture levels rise. In contrast, autumn presents an excellent opportunity for establishing trees and shrubs, allowing them to develop strong root systems before winter.
