Rain lilies signal a time to prep for fall gardening
As the summer heat begins to subside, September is an excellent time to prepare your garden for the fall season. 1. Plant Cool-Season Crops – Plant broccoli, cauliflow er, kale, spinach, and carrots in early September for a fall harvest; 2. Maintain Lawn Care – Continue to mow and water your lawn regularly. Consider de- thatching, which involves removing dead grass and debris from your lawn to improve airflow, reduce fungal diseases, and pro- mote healthy growth. You can use a dethatching rake or a power rake for this process; 3. Divide and Transplant – Divide and transplant perennials like daylilies. To do this: Dig around the daylily clump, making sure to get as much of the root system as possible, Gently wash 09/13/2024 04:33 AM
