October

 

Tropical house plants that have summered over outdoors need to come inside once nighttime temperatures reach 45 degrees or less. Be sure to check for pests before bringing them indoors.

 

Plant ornamental and fruit-bearing shrubs and trees in October. Dig planting holes no deeper than the root ball and at least twice as wide as the plant's container. Provide one inch of water per week for the first year. For plants a long way from a water source, provide weekly water with a five-gallon bucket having a slow-drip hole punched near the bottom.
