I'm getting ready to bring all the house plants back inside. Plan ahead. Had a cleaning crew come and give the whole house the once over. I did the windows. Took all the saucers and trays outside, cleaned with garden hose. Trays and saucers back inside distributed on window ledges, shelves. Test all light fixtures. Starting to spray all plants outside with Azamax on a regular basis now. My average first frost date is 27 Sep. Keeping a keen eye on the long (and short) range forecasts. A good fall is when I see the cold temps coming and can gradually brining plants inside. Checking each for bugs and tree frogs. Taking cuttings, repotting if needed. A bad fall is when I am not this prepared and they suddenly change the forecast. Gene
