With summer in the rear view mirror, a chill in the air, and a blush of color to the foliage of our deciduous trees, it is time to begin tying the loose ends in your garden before the end of the season. It seems that no matter how well-laid a garden plan is, every year there is at least one plant that needs to be transplanted. Not getting enough morning sun, not getting enough afternoon shade, filling out more than expected, etc. Variables that sometimes simply are not apparent until the plant has lived in the spot for a season. While sometimes frustrating, transplanting in a garden is actually a wonderful necessity that keeps the flow of the garden fresh and interesting. After all, the unknown is half the fun in gardening anyway. One of the troubles with transplanting is the timing. Often the decision is made in high summer that a particular plant needs to move, however this is a terrible time for transplanting. Then in the ideal transplanting window, mid-autumn, when most of us are not in the garden every day it easily slips the mind. With a few key specifications, transplanting success is quite attainable.
