Here on the Central Coast, now is a good time to plant perennials and trees. Fall is also the best time for sowing California poppies and other wildflower seeds. We carry many types of flower, vegetable, and herb seeds. Plant a cover crop if your soil is tired after a productive growing season. As the days grow shorter, it is also the time to give your soil a check-up. A good approach to improving heavy clay soil is to add organic matter such as compost, and we always recommend G&B Organics’ Harvest Supreme.  As we head into what may be a supremely wet El Niño winter, outdoor inventory here at the nursery may be lower than normal while we batten down the hatches.
