Tasks for this time of year include staking newly planted trees in windy areas. Clean up debris to eliminate hid- ing places for pests.
Irrigate citrus trees at night if frost is ex- pected. Damage to cit- rus varies with vari- ety and fruit ripeness. Continue to irrigate if weather remains dry. When pruning, do not top or prune trees se- verely in an attempt to avoid raking leaves. Extreme pruning will disfigure trees and shorten their lives.
Discard diseased wood. Fertilizing: Add bulb fertilizer to the planting hole before planting bulbs.
Planting Fall plant- ing ends this month. The soil will cool rapid- ly which will slow root growth. If you wish to transplant trees in the
fall, it is best to wait un- til December or Janu- ary when deciduous and evergreen trees are dormant.
Perennials: dianthus, euphorbia, kalanchoe, red hot poker (Knipho- fia). Bulbs, corms, tu- bers: Snowdrop (Galan- thus), snowflake (Leu- cojum) tulip, Watsonia. Fruits and vegetables: bulb and green onions, strawberry
