• Evergreen Shrubs

    Evergreen shrubs are plants that retain their foliage throughout the year, providing year-round color and texture to the landscape. These shrubs are valued for their ability to maintain green foliage even during the winter months.

  • Early/Late winter plants

    In regions with mild winters, late winter or early winter can also be
    suitable for planting certain types of plants. This allows them to
    establish roots before the onset of warmer weather in spring.

  • Spring

    Spring is typically considered the best time for planting a wide range
    of plants, including trees, shrubs, perennials, and annual flowers. The
    soil is warming up, and plants are emerging from dormancy, making it an ideal time for growth.

  • Early Summer

    In some regions with milder climates or cooler summers, early summer can be a suitable time for planting. However, it's essential to ensure that newly planted vegetation receives adequate water during the warmer months to help them establish roots.

  • Fall

    Fall is another excellent planting season, particularly for trees,
    shrubs, and perennial plants. The cooler temperatures and increased
    rainfall provide optimal conditions for root establishment, allowing
    plants to establish themselves before winter.
