October is still prime time to strengthen cool-season lawns. Feed established grass with Winterizer, finish overseeding while you can, and tackle broadleaf weeds before they become next spring’s problem.
Brighten your landscape with mums, pansies, ornamental cabbage, and kale. With proper planting, feeding, watering, and mulching, you can enjoy beautiful color through fall and help hardy plants make it through winter.
October is prime time to plant spring-flowering bulbs like tulips, daffodils, crocus, and hyacinths. Plant them in groups for a bigger springtime display, and give them a good start with well-prepared, well-drained soil.
