October in the Flower Garden Preparing for Winter

A very busy time begins in the garden as the summer and autumn flowers fade. Although much depends upon the weather, the time is approaching quickly when we must put everything in order for the winter. In my part of the country, Halloween, at the end of the month, usually is heralded in with snow and cold temperatures.

The whole flower garden should be dug over, but it is most important not to injure the hardy plants that will remain. Where there are a lot of these, it is safer to dig with a fork than a spade. A spade is much more likely to cut roots through if it comes across them. This, of course, presupposes you already have a flower bed with easily worked soil.

Building a No Dig Garden

The no dig garden is exactly what it describes...a fertile garden bed with no digging at all. It involves layering clean, organic materials that will literally compost around your plants as they grow.

The No Dig Garden is built on top of the ground, so you can build a garden anywhere. This makes it extremely attractive for those sites that have poor soil or are weed infested. It's also a great method of gardening for those who can't (or don't want to) dig a garden patch!

Stargazer Oriental Lily

The Lily 'Stargazer', 'Lilium Oriental Hybrid', a fall planted bulb, is the most popular of all oriental lilies because of it's fragrance, red and white flowers, and long lasting vase life. Oriental hybrid lilies, known as the most flamboyant personalities within the world of lilies, are characterized by their immense flowers, at least 6" across. The elegant flowers, with their gracefully recurved petals, have an intense fragrance and rich colors. Oriental Lilies are very long-lived in the garden and will multiply over the years, if left undisturbed. They attract butterflies and hummingbirds.

Red Delicious Apple Tree

The Red Delicious is the most widely grown variety of apple in the entire world. It is also one of America's favorite for snacking. Red Delicious apples have a very firm, creamy white flesh, and are juicy, aromatic and very sweet. The fruit is heart shaped and generally bright red in color, but often exhibits some red striping. These apples can keep fresh for a very long time, and are found all year in stores. They also look great for extended periods when left out, and thus are the favored choice for holiday decorations and wreaths.

Mars Grape

The Mars Grape (Blue-Purple), `Vitas labrusca Mars,' produces seedless, medium sized grapes that are perfect to serve fresh on the table, as well as in making jams and jellies. It is very similar in character to the Concord grape. This is the most disease resistant variety of grape that we carry, and the fruits will ripen in mid to late August. Grape vines can also be grown as ornamentals or screens in the landscape.
