In John's Garden

Late summer and early fall is both a happy and sad time for Newfoundland gardeners. The growing season is over, and with it, all our efforts begin to die away, slowly but surely.

Some plants are still blooming, but with the dreadful summer we have had, those species flowering now really should have been finished weeks ago!

To look on the bright side, we can all sit back and forget about weeding and fertilizing once winter comes - a well-deserved break for many of us.

But before we all sit down and vegetate, as though we were a plant ourselves, we could be planting our fall garden. Mums, asters and fall bulbs go in this time of year, and since we're still seeing a sprinkling of warm sunny days, we best get to work soon!

In the past I have discussed fall bulbs and how to plant them - really not that complicated as long as you don't space them like toy solders, all by their lonesome. Remember that bulbs are meant to be bunched.

This week I would like to highlight some unique fall bulbs that could be grown in almost any Newfoundland garden.
