Under these conditions will not germinate until the spring, but you'll have much more time. Why not use Thanksgiving do it?

Of all the Green and all the fast-growing plants, most of them must have low temperature treatment over the winter, it can be sown during November and early December, for spring germination. These include flowering dogwood, birdseed, Cotoneaster, Golden rain tree, cork tree, Washington, bitter sweet thorn, Russian olive, magnolia, and hundreds of others. But it is necessary to eliminate the pulp prior to sowing seeds or germination may be delayed a year.

Autumn planting, as spring planting, requires the preparation of good soil. This means the integration of rich organic matter and complete commercial fertilizer is thoroughly mixed with the soil in Hawaiian umbrella tree and other plants. It's much better to combine these materials with the soil, than the child itself, but no plants change only a small layer at the bottom of the pit. And while we're on the father, it's a good idea to fertilize the lawn early This autumn with a complete fertilizer such as 4-12-4, 5-10-5, 6-10-4 to pep up the grass, weeds are growing.

My own pile of compost predominantly from sheets, many of them put into the heap during April and may, will be applied to the last drop before the new leaves are on a pile of autumn. New beds receives an inch layer plus a complete fertilizer shall be spaded in so deep, how can I get another layer of inch, spade, the other driving; The next layer of about half a centimeter, third. Until then, you don't even need the shovel, although this is hard on the nails.

The main thing you're looking for, do you think the plant health is for the purchase, you do not want to introduce new diseases that could extend the garden to your more flowers and plants.

Having said that, the renowned Garden Center or kindergarten is the best place to buy new plants, does not mean that it is impossible that these plants have the disease, so you must still be cautious and carefully check the plants before their transmission of your money.

Maybe you think you know enough plants to determine whether they are healthy or not, but you can use some common sense, which will typically be you will be well served. If the herb looks unhealthy, hope they are unhealthy and you should follow from buying it. Plants, which will be symptoms generally unhealthy.

The main things to look at are the leaves, roots and stems of the plants as carefully as possible. Another thing to take into account the soil, plant growing in, it gives you a good idea whether the plants have been well cared for. Wrong type of soil or compost can have a huge impact on the ability of plants to thrive.

If you need to buy some pretty coloured new flowers for your garden, for those of you with a fully opened flowers that look impressive necessarily don't go. Normally on are those that are still in bloom. One of the reasons for this is to the right. If your device already has the hope that they will damage the flowers during transport home.

Garden Centre are on their last few samples of the plant or flower, you want to buy then it may be useful to delete all the flowers. While it may sound counterintuitive, considering that it will give the plants a much greater chance of survival and may in the long term, lead to greater and better flowers.

All of this is again mostly on common sense. If something doesn't look right on a particular race, that you ask for advice on the purchase or better yet, don't buy and either find a better pattern, or go for something else.
