Calloway's Timely Tip for October
> 
> 
> Remember too, as September gives way to the cooler days of
> October, this is a good time to evaluate your landscape. 
> Did you know that fall is one of the best times to plant
> trees, shrubs and perennials?  Nursery stock planted now
> will have an opportunity for roots to settle in and become
> established.  When spring arrives, this root system can
> support and take full advantage of the surge of new growth. 
> Fresh nursery stock is arriving daily so, stop by and take
> advantage of the selection available and this wonderful time
> of the year to work outdoors!
> 
> We are also excited about more heirloom bulbs from The
> Southern Bulb Company. Remember, this is the Texas company
> known for searching out and rescuing "lost and
> forgotten" varieties. The Leucojum aestivum, better
> known as "Snowflakes", is by far one of the most
> adaptable bulbs ever offered in Texas. Clusters of
> dime-sized blooms emerge in February accented by bluish
> green foliage. The 'Grand Primo' Narcissus is
> treasured for its long lasting blooms and robust foliage.
> This reliable bloomer's fragrance is light and sweet and
> the flowers appear in late February through March.
> 'Golden Dawn' Narcissus grows 14" -16"
> tall and is multi-flowering. Enjoy a sweet, clean fragrance
> year after year usually in mid-March. As a good "rule
> of thumb" for most bulbs, plant at a depth about three
> times the height of the bulb.
> 
> Also, new this fall is a program which offers the early
> purchase of pre-chilled bulbs.  Several varieties of Tulips,
> Narcissus and Hyacinths are available for purchasing now
> with delivery in December-ready to go into the ground. 
> Gardening made easy!
