October Plant Tips
- Plant trees, shrubs and perennials now, as cooler weather supports root growth.
- Mulch roses and tender perennials for added winter protection.
- Plant spring-blooming bulbs such as tulips, daffodils, and crocus before the first frost.
- Dig up summer-blooming bulbs like dahlias and elephant ears; store them indoors in a frost-proof, dry spot.
- Rake fallen leaves to prevent them from blocking sunlight and air to the grass.
- Move houseplants indoors before nighttime temperatures drop below 40°F.
- This is the last month to fertilize indoor plants before they go dormant for winter.
- Store planters, fountains, and outdoor decor pieces that aren’t frost-proof in a protected space.
- Clean and sharpen garden tools before winter storage.

This place is phenomenal.
"Incredible plants, pots, outdoor decor, outdoor furnishings and more. In Spring, they host an amazing garden show. It is well worth a trip to Westbury to visit this nursery.”

I love it here!
“Prices are fair, all plants are in *pristine* condition & the staff is amazing. I drive 50 minutes from Brooklyn... (They) really speak the language of plant & garden lovers.”
