- Plant trees, shrubs, perennials, and herbs.
- Continue planting wildflower seeds.
- Continue planting vegetable seeds and transplants.
- It's not too late to divide iris and other perennials.
- Plan how you're going to protect marginal plants and cold-tender vegetables. Take cuttings of summer annuals or cold-tender favorites that you'd like to preserve.
