Even though people are getting in their last set of vacations for the summer, here at Bountiful Acres, we can’t stop talking about Fall! Each season brings with it an entirely different feeling. Fall may be characterized by cooler weather, it also has the holidays, splashes of changing colors, and delicious hot meals that add a comforting warmth to it.
We believe that gardens should capture all the beautiful nuances of each season – the warmth, the color, and the comfort of gathering with loved ones.
So, we’ve put together a list of plants for you Fall lovers who want their outdoor space to truly showcase the splendor of the season!
