Ken and Lisa Lain, the Top 10 Gardeners here. Fall is a magical time in the garden, and here in the mountains, we have the unique opportunity to enjoy blooms and vibrant colors right through November! Now is the perfect time to add some autumn stars to your landscape.
For stunning fall foliage, consider planting ornamental trees like Maples, Aspens, or Raywood Ash. Vines like Virginia Creeper and Trumpet Vine add a splash of color as they climb. Shrubs like Burning Bush, Nandina, and Oregon Grape Holly bring fiery reds, oranges, and yellows to your garden. Even native plants like Prickly Pear can surprise you with colorful pads in the cooler months.
Don't forget about mums and asters! These classic fall bloomers add cheerful pops of color and thrive in our climate. Mums, especially, are surprisingly hardy perennials here, returning year after year with proper care.
Remember, fall planting gives your new additions a head start, allowing them to establish strong roots before winter dormancy. So, don't wait! Embrace the beauty of autumn and plant now for a vibrant fall garden.
