Fall Garden Maintenance | Kansas City Garden Supplies
If considering transplanting shrubs or trees, now is a good time. The soil temperature is still warm, so digging in your landscape is not impossible and most plants are dormant or heading there. Make sure when digging you get as much root mass as possible. Replant and water in and mulch around the plant. I would check before pruning back, as a lot of the spring blooming shrubs and trees bloom on that years growth, so there will be no spring blooms if you prune too much!

This is a good time to put your roses to bed for the winter. Clean up the foliage around the plant and prune back after the 1st hard freeze. Mulch in the plants with approximately 3″-4″ of quality mulch.
