The end of the growing season is a good time to evaluate your landscape and see which plants grew well and which ones did not. Often problems occur because the right plant wasn’t planted in the right place. “Right plant, right place” is simply a matter of choosing a plant that is well-suited to the location where it will be grown. Don’t be afraid to move plants to a new location if they are underperforming or overtaking a garden space at the expense of other plants. Fall is a great time to transplant – find a location that offers more of the preferred growing conditions and your plants will be a lot happier.
