Pumpkins

Henrico, Va., Sept. 30, 2021 — Fall is a great time for planting and decorating. Get started Oct. 13 and Oct. 14 at a plant sale at the Advanced Career Education Center at Virginia Randolph. Turn your yard into a haven for wildlife with student-grown, environmentally friendly native plants. Check out perennials that thrive in late summer and fall, such as native grasses, several types of asters and goldenrod, as well as phlox. Of course, Halloween is around the corner, and students will also be selling pumpkins in all shapes and colors. 

Cooler autumn temperatures are easier on new plants and there’s still time for plants to establish the roots they’ll need for next spring and summer.
