Cooler weather is in the forecast and the smell of pumpkin spice is in the air, which can only mean one thing... September has arrived!!
Supplemental watering was imperative for your landscape's survival in order to make it through this brutal summer. But, cooler weather may soon be upon us. Let's hope so! Here are some helpful landscape tips as we enter into the fall season.

Turf
As the month progresses, and the heat and humidity begin to reduce, remember not to decrease your mower height until it begins to cool down even more. It is time to start applying your pre-emergent and fall fertilizers. In mid-September, give your turf a light feeding. Be sure to match the product with our soils and your turf type. Avoid weed and feed products as they have been known to damage certain trees. Ask a nursery pro to help or have a simple soil analysis done. Fertilizing will also prevent winter freeze damage and encourage spring green-up. Continue practicing responsible watering and to follow the watering restrictions for your area. Remember even in the winter you need to ensure adequate water to the root system of your grass.
Trees
The immediate danger of spreading oak wilt is between the months of February and June. The high heat and humid conditions during this time of year are perfect for these fungal spores to thrive. As the weather begins to cool, the chances of passing infection from tree to tree decreases dramatically. Still, proper pruning techniques are vital to maintaining the health of any plant, especially trees. When pruning trees, especially oaks, ensure your tools are clean and the wound is treated with a pruning paint to avoid introduction of infection. Tree planting is highly encouraged in the fall, provided adequate irrigation is available through establishment.
Ornamental Beds
Maintaining a layer of mulch on all perennial beds and continuing to water deeply and infrequently will help to ensure the vitality of your ornamentals going into Fall. Pruning some woody perennials now can result in an impressive show of fall flowers. Remember to try and not remove more than one-third of the foliage of the plant when pruning as this can cause undue stress on the plant material and wait at least a week before and after any major pruning to apply fertilizers or pest control agents.
