As hard as it was to see our "disappointing" summer come to end, we cannot complain about the first week of fall. Last week was just lovely and I hope we have more of that weather to come.

I know the nice weather makes it hard to finish things in the garden but remember it's more fun doing it nice weather vs cold rainy weather.

At our house it's time to close the pool and put my veggie garden pots to bed. I have to say my veggies were a disappointment this season. I think the lack of heat really stunted the season, whether your garden was in pots or not. I am looking forward to doing a bit more reading this winter to learn more about growing vegetables in pots.

I kept this month's article short and quick and to the point with a handy checklist of things you can do this fall to take care of your garden. Planting bulbs and garlic are probably the ones that will have the most impact.

If you would like bulbs planted in your garden this fall for some spring colour give me a call and we can discuss my Bulb Planting service. I will make sure I plant the right ones for the right area of your garden.

Here's to a glorious fall!

All the best,

Joanne
