Fall is the ideal season to plant new trees, shrubs, and perennials in North Texas! Even as the top of your plants slows down for dormancy, their roots keep growing and establishing underground. This gives them a strong start before the intense summer heat arrives.
Cooler fall temperatures also reduce transplant shock, while winter rains mean less watering, saving you time and money. Planting in the fall sets your garden up for success, with healthier, hardier plants ready to thrive next year.
And don’t worry, once your plants are dormant, they’re perfectly safe. Just give them a drink before a hard freeze if rainfall has been scarce.
