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. Annual plants may all be pulled up and carted away to the compost bin as they cease to flower.

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!

The site you choose for your garden must get at least 5 hours of sunlight a day. Drainage will be good because of the materials that will be used in making the garden.

Zumi Crabapple

The Zumi Crabapple Tree, `Malux x Zumi Calocarpa,' is a semi-dwarf crabapple that may be used as a street tree. It is most valued for its profuse, spring flowering of fragrant, white blooms and its small, glossy, bright red fruit. The crabapples will mature in the autumn, and likely persist into December. It is very effective when planted as a background for other early flowering plants. It is also commonly grown near fences, in groups as a screen or as a specimen planting in a lawn or patio.

Red Globe Peach Tree

The Red Globe peach features one of the finest flavors even developed. This very large, round fruit has yellow flesh that is blushed with red, and touts an excellent flavor. These are some of the most highly desirable commercial peaches, and they have exceptional quality. The large fruits ripen in June, and the trees are vigorous and highly productive. The fruits, with their highly blushed red atop a golden background, are some of the most attractive peaches of their season. The fruits have good quality and are rather firm.

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.
