Do It Yourself

strengthen the roots system. Stronger roots make the bush or tree live longer, but also help them look better in the long run.

Finally, you need to prune back the shrubs just before winter. Clip off the overgrowth after all the leaves drop off. The best time of year to prune your trees and shrubs is when the plants are going into dormancy. This way, you keep them in check size-wise without stressing them out.

Whatever you do, the main element here is the moisture. You need to keep your trees and shrubs watered from now until the temperatures drop below 50 degrees consistently. Start this process now and you will see a longer fall color pop, as well as better leaf-out next spring.
