Fall Landscaping Tips for Your Atlanta Yard

As summer transitions to fall in Georgia, it’s the perfect time to give your landscape some attention. The cooler temperatures are ideal for planting, maintaining, and preparing your yard for the coming seasons. At Mountain High Landscape Supply, we have everything you need to make your outdoor space thrive this fall.

Essential Fall Lawn Care

Fall is a crucial time for your lawn. Start by aerating to improve drainage and help nutrients reach the roots. This is also the best season for overseeding to fill in any thin spots. Finish by applying a slow-release fertilizer so your grass stays healthy all winter long. Don’t let fallen leaves smother your lawn; rake them up or use a mulching mower to return valuable nutrients to the soil.

Planting and Pruning for a Beautiful Landscape

Georgia’s mild fall climate is perfect for planting. Consider adding cool-season vegetables like lettuce and kale to your garden beds. Fall is also an excellent time to plant new trees and shrubs. The cooler weather reduces transplant stress and allows new roots to get established before winter. While you’re at it, prune and trim overgrown branches to improve the health and appearance of your plants.

Protecting Your Yard with High-Quality Mulch

Applying a fresh layer of mulch is one of the most important things you can do this fall. Mulch insulates the soil, protects plant roots from temperature swings, and helps control weeds. We have a great selection of premium materials to choose from, including:

• Mulch

• Long Needle Pine Straw

• Pine Nuggets

All of these are available at our two convenient locations in Marietta and Atlanta.

Enhance Your Outdoor Living Space

The comfortable fall weather is a great reason to spend more time outdoors. If you’re looking to upgrade your yard, consider adding new hardscape features. From fire pits to beautiful walkways, we have all the materials you need, including:

• Boulders

• Steppers

• River Rock

• Gravel

• A variety of Stone

All of these are ready for pickup or delivery from our stores in Marietta and Atlanta.
