Most of our customers are asking when the best time to plant plants is.

  • There are many benefits of late Summer and Autumn planting. Fall planting gives plants an early start on growth. Autumn days are cooler and shorter so plants have less moisture loss through their leaves. The soil still retains warmth from the summer’s heat, which encourages root growth.
  • The plants go dormant and prepare for winter so they don’t need much care like frequent watering and fertilizing. All this applies to all hardy trees, shrubs, and perennials. Fall planting will have the most effect on your landscaping the following season.
  • In Calgary ground freezes deep only after New Year, and roots grow taking advantage of retained summer soil warmth. Winter snow further soaks the roots and encourages the growth of a root system. When the days begin to warm the following spring, top growth begins, new leaves emerge, and root growth progresses rapidly.

 

  • There is another benefit of late Summer and Autumn planting. During the following usually dry Calgary summer, the larger root system can supply more water and nutrients to the plant. By the following autumn, the plant will be larger than one planted in the spring, due to the healthier root system that had a chance to grow by being planted in the fall. The plant will gain almost one extra season of growth when planted in fall.
  • The fall landscaping project is the best time to move trees, and shrubs and divide perennials. Bulbs need to be planted in the fall. Pruning of most trees and shrubs is also recommended in autumn.
  • Fall planting is easier on the homeowner’s budget. You can find great deals on plants, and landscaping installation and stretch your dollar. We offer great fall planting discounts and guarantee planted-in fall plants for 2 years.
