hued mums invade front walkways,
porches and steps. But don't de-

shed, consider pardoning them and
planting trees and shrubs this fall,

as the "second best time to plant,"
after spring.

sales throughout the fall. High on
the list of desired landscape plants
are hydrangeas, arborvitae, privet
hedge and trees like white pine,
which are very popular as privacy
