Fall Color 
Time to look for that leaf color you have been waiting to plant in your yard. Fall is around the corner and leaf color change will be starting soon. I am seeing it with trees and shrubs that are under stress in existing landscapes.  When plants are changing color at your favorite retail nursery, be ready to purchase when you see the color scheme appear on the plant. This is especially true with Pistacia, Nyssa, Maples and even Crape Myrtles.Most plants in containers tend to change color a few weeks later than when in the landscape.This gives you time to determine which fall color plant you want after seeing it in existing landscape designs.

Worm Composting


 Couldn't believe how fast the worms can eat and make worm compost. 
                    Too easy to do. Check out the UC Sonoma site:
