Not Too Late To Plant Print
It's Not Too Late To Plant!

Customers have been asking us whether it's too late to plant anything more outside this season.
geraniums.benchedThe answer is a resounding NO, it is NOT too late — there's plenty of time! Here's what you can plant in the Santa Fe area, timed for best results:

Plant From Now Through Mid-August:
• Quart and gallon size annual flowers, such as geraniums, cosmos, snapdragons and osteospermums)
• Hardy cool-loving vegetables such as beets, broccoli raab, broccoli, carrots, chard, fennel, kale, leeks, lettuces, mâche, pak choi, peas, radishes, rhubarb, scallions, spinach); annual cool-loving herbs (arugula, borage, chervil, cilantro, dill). Just be sure to give them shade from the worst of the afternoon sun till it starts to cool down in the fall.

Plant  From Now Through End of August:
• Hardy herbs (such as chives, garlic chives, bronze fennel, German chamomile, French tarragon, parsley, hardy lavender and lavandin, hardy 'Arp' rosemary, sage, English thyme, and winter savory)
• Quart and gallon size hardy perennials.

Plant From Now Through Mid-September or First Frost:
• trees
• shrubs
• vines
• garlic
• hardy spring bulbs
• ornamental cabbages and kales
