I like to plant trees, hedges and veggies whilst the soil is still warm, so plants a good start before winter and Autumn is a great time to plan and plant out a Spring bulb garden, there's always room for one more bulb!

The soil is still warm so is perfect for new planting of veggies & spring blooms. The cool nights colour the trees golden yellow, red, burgundy & orange. Leaves carpet the ground... my favorite time of year.

6 år sidenMy favourite thing about Autumn is the change in season. A great time to plant the new fruit trees and watch the frost take over to get a great crop of apricot and berries come summer! The garden changes so much in Autumn, due to the warm and cold days and it is beautiful to watch the plants constantly adjusting

6 år sidenThe beautiful autumn colour is my favorite thing about that time of year. Every day my garden changes as the leaves turn and fall leaving an amazing carpet on my drive. After raking them up and mulching them they then become valuable mulch for my garden. I also love the cooler weather and relief rom the summer heat.

6 år sidenI have this tree outside my house which is currently green, but when Autumn comes, the leaves go a beautiful Princeton Orange colour. It's also about this time where my Roses around my house start to be pruned, and they come out with hundreds and hundreds of them by Summer, it truly is special, but I have to admit, my favourite season is Summer... lol

Melbourne in Autumn, a change to crisp cool weather, and watching leaves become all shades of gold, orange and garnet. Perfect weather for tucking into Sticky Date pudding with

6 år sidenFor me, autumn brings a welcome reprieve from the heat plus some cosy rainy days. This season we will be moving into our new house so there will be many things on our autumn task list!dawnie2154

6 år sidenAutumn is my favourite season, the cooler temperatures and sunny clear days make great gardening weather plus the soil is still warm enough to get plants established before next summer. I'm looking forward to weekends spent establishing a new garden plus enjoying the autumn colours.

Great information, stunning floral arrangements, ideas for more sustainable projects, The MIGS is a fabulous day out.

6 år sidenI love Autumn for it's dramatic change of colour more than any other season here in Tassie. I only wish I had the room to plant all the deciduous trees in my garden to have that contrast of red, gold, green and yellow.

6 år sidenI love the cooler weather which is perfect for gardening. I'm always on the hunt for rare and unusual bulbs which get planted out in Autum. Deliciduous trees that turn gorgeous colours before leaf fall is always a sight to behold too!

There is not just one thing - i love the days that are still warm but the chill that comes in the evening; the colours of the trees as they turn; bringing out the quilts and blankets; cozy time on the couch......
