Get a jump start on spring and summer color by planting perennials in the fall! Fall is a great time to plant perennials because of the ideal growing conditions that encourage strong root growth.
Fall perennials should be planted in the fall before the first frost hardens the soil. Fall perennials have tender roots that need to be somewhat established before freezing temperatures move in. The best rule of thumb is to plant perennials in the ground at least 6 weeks before the ground freezes.
Every plant is different! Check packaging for specific planting information. Change up the spacing and mix bulbs and perennials with different heights and bloom times to conform to your landscaping style!
