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!

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.

Snowstorm Bacopa

Bacopa Snowstorm, `Sutera hybrids,' is a Proven Selections plant and an instant hit with gardeners. These plants are incredibly versatile and vigorous. The growth habit makes it unbeatable for filling in bare spots in the garden and small pots. Snowstorm plants have large, white flowers and are extra vigorous. This plant has a bushier and more vigorous upright habit than many other varieties of Sutera. The soil should be kept moist and well drained, as flowers will drop easily if the plant is not provided enough moisture. In zones nine through eleven, they can also be used as a perennial.

Royal Fern

The Royal Fern, `Osmunda regalis,' is a tall, deciduous fern that grows naturally on moist bluffs and ledges along streams, and is sometimes found growing in the water. The broad fronds feature large, separated leaflets that give this fern an almost pea-family appearance. Its spores are located in brown, tassel-like, fertile clusters on the tips of the fronds. This gives the plant the additional common name of flowering fern. This plant will also grow nicely in shaded borders, woodland gardens and native or wild plant gardens.

Angel Face Rose

The Angel Face Rose is a garden variety of rose that has a very well balanced Old Rose scent. An AARS winner in 1969, Angel Face plants are beautiful with their ruffled lavender pink blossoms and beautiful buds. The blooms make magnificent cut flowers. The somewhat short plants only reach a height of two to three feet.
