I was in Austin,
TX last week for a meeting. It was my first time there, and I only got
to spend a little time exploring, but know I definitely want to go back
sometime and see more. What a cool town!
What wasn't cool is the drought they are still in.
It reminded me of
lot of conditions around here not all that long ago. Things were dried
up and crispy and everywhere I went I saw reminders about water
restrictions. Not fun.
What a contrast to
what awaited me when I flew back into Kansas City. The landscape that
was so dried up and burnt only a week ago was now lush and green with
the recent arrival of fall rains.
I've been waiting
for a change in our weather to fire up our fall season, and I think
it's safe to say it's here! The break in the temperatures and the
wonderful rains we have received over the past week or so have changed
our world.
Fall is here. It's
time to start rebuilding. We have lived through an extended drought
and we still have a lot of "wounds" to show it. A lot of recovery took
place this spring, but there's still a lot more to do. Fall is one of
the best times of the year to plant. Lawns, trees, landscapes...they
can easily and effectively be planted right now. If you've been waiting for the right time to start your recover project, the wait is over.., it's perfect out there right now.
If you need help,
let us know. There are always questions about the right plants for this
spot, or the right way to grow grass in that spot...whatever the
question, we will try to help. Call us, email us, or stop by in person.
We'll visit with you and try to help figure out the best solution for
you and your landscape.
And here's an extra invitation.
We are having our Fall Open House
this weekend and you are invited. There will be some food, lots of
cool plants and of course lots of helpful information. If you're not
sure what tree to plant, stop by and ask. If you need some help
figuring out what you need to do to get your lawn looking good again,
stop by and ask. If you need tips for freshening up the front porch,
stop by and ask. If you need anything that we can help with, just stop
by and ask.
We want to help.
