For this week's video, Sean is back with us. He has a beautiful array of colorful options to spruce up your porch and patio pots for fall! As Sean says, this is a transitional time in the growing season ahead of our first frosts. As many of you know, Sean likes to equate holidays with certain markers for planting and Halloween is the holiday to think of that indicates our first frosts of the season. This means you have until about that time to work with flowering annuals and plants that won't survive frost. He also has a few options to choose from if you are looking to keep them looking good until you would do up your winter pots, meaning plants that can handle some frosty weather until about Thanksgiving time. Some people like to fully do up their pots for fall vibes and know they'll be short-lived while others like to carefully choose options that will get them through until Thanksgiving time. It's all preference but he's here to offer suggestions whichever way you like to go!

We tend to use them as an annual but did you know those garden mums are actually a perennial? So then, why do we use them like annuals? The answer lies in the unbelievable steps growers must take to get them looking the way they do when you buy them in the fall! Check it out.
