Hello, Fall—is that you?
Cooler mornings, shorter days, softer golden light and pumpkin-spiced everything—fall may arrive quietly in the Bay Area, but the garden knows it’s here.
It’s the season for rich autumn color, fresh cool-season flowers, textural grasses, and trees and shrubs that bring renewed interest to the landscape. Even better, fall’s mild temperatures make it an ideal time to plant, giving roots time to establish before next summer.
