The colors of autumn are upon us. While we should sit back and enjoy the show, this is also the time of year to prepare to grow more color for next year. Fall is the perfect time to plant wildflowers in most of the country.

Fall is a great time of year to tune up your soil. The year's harvest is winding down, the cool weather makes gardening enjoyable, and many of the soil amendments you add now will have all winter to break down before your next planting. Vegetables, herbs, and fruits all take nutrients from the soil as they grow. Each year you need to replace those nutrients to insure a healthy harvest. It all begins and ends with the soil.

Fall is the time when many trees, shrubs and wild plants release their seeds -- making it a good time to explore their many dispersal strategies and collect them for planting in your own garden.

 Rose of Sharon
"My Rose of Sharon plant is at least 10 years old. The last few years have not been flowering much and most of the buds did not open up and the flowers were small.. I tried AgroThrive for the first time in spring this year and the result is fantastic. There are plenty of flowers opening up and they are 5 inches in diameter." - Wailan T. from California, AgroThrive weekly garden contest winner. Click here to see more winners.
