Landscaping Hack

Is it okay to plant trees and flowers now with winter approaching?

As winter approaches, plants and trees slow down growth, and some even go to sleep storing their energy for the spring, when it is time to bloom again. It is the same for new or well established plants. Ideally, trees and shrubs need about a month to establish roots before a heavy freeze, but it’s actually OK to plant them anytime the ground is workable.
