FALL IS THE BEST TIME TO PLANT TREES AND SHRUBS
Cooler fall temperatures are
here. With these lower temperatures also comes the best time of the year to plant trees and shrubs. Most people get the bug to plant trees and shrubs in the spring, yet it is the fall that is best suited to plant these ornamental plants.
In the spring these plants are busy producing new leaves and putting out blooms in some cases. Plopping that new plant in the ground in the spring means that most of the plant’s energy is going into those new leaves and blooms and not into important root development. Then when summer heat arrives the plant struggles to take in enough water from its new digs.
In the fall and winter trees and shrubs slow their growth functions. When planting in the fall most of the plants energy goes into root development so that by spring the plant has a good root foundation that is ready for leaf, fruit and flower production and more capable of handling the stress of summer heat.

PLANT THE RIGHT TREE
Planting the wrong tree in the wrong place can be very costly. Not
just the cost of the tree--but future pruning, removal, root
problems and many other issues. GARDEN VIEW NURSERY has thousands of
trees and hundreds of varieties to choose from. The nursery has very
descriptive signage throughout the entire nursery with pictures of
their flowers and our own durability ratings derived from our 30
years of landscaping experience.
Our knowledgeable sales staff will help you pick the right tree for
your situation. Our experienced crew can deliver and professionally
install your tree. We can also install root guards (helps keep roots
controlled), deep water conduits (encourages deep roots), and soggy
soil root protectors (devices & procedures to reduce problems from
poor draining soil).
PLANT THE RIGHT PLANT THAT WILL LIVE!
Do you kill your plants? Maybe it is because you are picking the
wrong ones. Not all plants are durable. At Garden View you will find
that we have signage with our own durability ratings derived from 30
years of landscaping experience. Our plants are grown locally and
are acclimated to our climate. They are not grown in a greenhouse or
another area and shipped here. They are not overly pumped with
fertilizer and other products so they look great on the shelf but
are not hardened off to tolerate our climate and normal abuse.
PRICE IS IMPORTANT but there is a lot more to it than that.
All trees and plants are not equal; even in our own nursery. At one
nursery you may have a larger plant or tree with more robust flowers
but the plant can be pumped so that it looks good on the shelf or at
the nursery. Though this plant may be able to be sold at a lower
cost (because it took less time to grow) or you think it has more
flowers, it may not be as good of a deal as a slightly smaller plant
that is acclimated to your climate. Our plants are not overly
pumped, have a more mature root system, a larger caliber, are pruned
correctly, are hardened off, and are simply more durable. You can be
assured Garden View has very low prices, wide selection, and our
staff will help you pick the best plant for your needs out of our
extensive inventory.
WATERWISE PLANTING
Most of the plants we use on a regular basis need a lot less
water than we give them. Many, if not most of our favorite,
most durable, and blooming
plants are very water wise. The plants at Garden View Nursery
are labeled for their water needs.
With water becoming more scarce and expensive we need to think
about how we use this valuable resource. The plants we use, how
we use them, how we irrigate them and train them (see deep
watering in gardening tips) are all very important in saving
water.
Plant term definitions:
Water Wise
– Plants that will look good with a minimum amount of water.
They may tolerate a wide range of conditions but still survive
on minimum amounts water. They may not survive long term total
lack of water.
Drought Tolerant Plants
– Plants that will survive a drought. The term is applied and
often used by the mainstream to mean water wise though in
actuality a drought tolerant plant should survive total drought.
Sometimes Drought Tolerant plants may not look good with minimum
water and may even defoliate or go deciduous with out water but
generally will survive and come back when they have water.
California Native Plants
- As the name states these are plants indigenous to California.
They are generally water wise and drought tolerant. Usually they
should be planted in fall or winter. Most are somewhat finicky,
have low sustainability or durability ratings in irrigated
landscapes, and though they may need some warm season watering
they may perish with too much watering or if they are mixed with
plants of higher water needs. In season Garden View has a
selection of some of the most durable and popular California
Native Plants.
Though it is highly unlikely we will have a total drought on our
planted yards it is not unlikely that we will have water
shortages and increased cost. We believe planting water wise
plants grouped together and using quality zoned irrigation
systems is the key to having beautiful gardens that use minimum
amounts of water.
