Cooler days does not mean your gardening season is over! November is a great time to plant trees and shrubs, add spring-flowering bulbs and give your landscape a little attention before winter.

Our November Planting & Landscaping Checklist highlights seasonal tasks, from growing cool-season vegetables in cold frames to mulching fruit plants and improving garden soil.

Planting times vary by region, so check recommendations for your area before getting started. Save this checklist to keep your November garden plans on track!

October is a great time to plan ahead and give your perennials a little fall care! From coneflowers and black-eyed Susans to daylilies and hostas, here’s a quick garden to-do list:

Remove spent blooms, or leave seedheads to provide food for wildlife.
Cut back plants that had significant pest or disease problems.
Divide and relocate healthy plants that need more room, allowing four to six weeks for roots to establish before the ground freezes.
Keep weeding and watering as needed.

A little attention now can help your perennial garden thrive next season. Find more tips in “Keeping Perennials Healthy All Year” here: https://www.aces.edu/go/5912
