*Planting season is continuous during the winter months.
LAWN SEEDING DATES A tabulation showing the beginning and ending dates during normal spring and fall seasons for seeding of lawns. Abnormalweather conditions affect these seasons more than they affect the seasons for planting of trees, shrubs, etc. An early spring willnecessitate the seeding of lawns at an earlier date to secure root growth before the heat of a correspondingly early summer, anda late hot summer will cause delay until seeding can be done with some assurance of autumn rains to encourage root growth.
EVERGREEN PLANTING DATES The planting season for evergreens begins later in the spring and earlier in the fall than the corresponding seasons for deciduous plants. The reason is that the majority of evergreens will not survive the shock of transplanting in the spring unless the soil is "warm," i. e., the condition of the soil must be such that immediate root growth is stimulated, and in the fall root growth must be continued to insure a development of new feeding roots before cold weather and soil produce dormant conditions. |
