The Best Plants To Grow In Your Fall Garden

While it may still seem like summer for many of us, in reality Fall is right around the corner. As the weather begins to cool down (hopefully) for many of us, now is the perfect time to plan your Fall Garden as certain plants are much well-suited for the cooler temperatures and shorter daylight hours. Here are a few ideas on what to use this part of the year to grow:

Leafy Greens:

Lettuce: Varieties like Romaine, Butterhead, and Spinach thrive in cooler weather.
Kale: Kale is a hardy green that actually becomes sweeter during the Autumn months.
Swiss Chard: A versatile green that tolerates cooler temperatures well.

Root Vegetables:

Carrots: These can be left in the ground well into the fall and harvested as needed.
Beets: Beets are another root vegetable that can be grown in the fall.
Radishes: Fast-growing and perfect for fall planting.

Brassicas:

Broccoli: Broccoli can produce a fall crop if planted in late summer.
Cauliflower: Similar to broccoli, it can be planted for a late fall harvest.
Cabbage: Cabbage varieties like Savoy and Napa do well in cooler weather.

Herbs:

Parsley: Parsley can thrive in cooler temperatures.
Chives: Chives are hardy herbs that can withstand the cooler temperatures.
Cilantro: You can enjoy fresh cilantro in the fall if you plant it in late summer.

Remember that the timing of your Fall planting will vary depending on your location and how cool your area will be getting.
