Fall is one of the very best times to plant. Why, you ask? When you plant in the Fall, you are tucking your perennials, shrubs and trees into warm beds of soil that coax the roots to settle in before they go dormant over the winter months which gives plants a head’s start when spring rolls around.

With the cooling temperatures of Fall, plants experience less stress, and there are fewer bugs, pests, and weeds around that normally would tax their energy, so plants are able to focus on underground growth and make their roots strong.

And who doesn’t want to give their beds and gardens a lush refresh in bright autumn colors of gold, bronze, deep burgundies, purples, and reds that will return each year? At Gasper Home & Garden Center you will find a complete collection of Autumn Additions™ perennials from Blew Label® just waiting for you to bring home to make your Fall landscape pop. Autumn Additions were created by the grower to enhance these robust Fall varieties of perennials’ flowering power. Look for the orange Autumn Addition container throughout the Gasper nursery.

Now is the time to add those shrubs and trees to your property that you have been thinking about. Whether you are a do-it-yourselfer, or you need us to install your selections for you, our Gasper nursery team is ready to help. Drop by today and let us assist you with your Autumn landscaping needs.

When it comes to planting in the Fall annuals arena, we have a comprehensive collection of winter hardy pansies and ornamental cabbage and kale that will last through the winter, as well as ornamental peppers that will last until the first hard frost. This combination is sure to give your neighbors ‘Autumn Porch Envy’ while dressing your pots, containers and beds in style. These annual hardy flowers and ornamentals are perfect for staging Fall planters and beds in addition to seasonal porch and patio décor.
