Monthly things to do in October

October

• Bulb planting continues this month.

• Geraniums and fuchsias to be over-wintered should be sprayed to eliminate bugs and brought indoors.

• Cuttings can be taken at this time.

• Dig your cannas, dahlias, gladiolus and tuberous begonias and store them properly for winter.

• Evergreens, garlic, and shallots can be planted.  Bulbs for winter forcing should be potted this month and stored under cool conditions.
