September Garden Tasks for Iris and Roses
September brings calm to the garden with cooler nights and falling leaves. The Augusta Rose Society advises continuing fungicide for roses and applying final fertilization with 10-10-10 followed by organic topdressings. prune shrubs cautiously and avoid cutting back azaleas or camellias. Maintain watering for new irises, divide bearded irises, and manage turfgrasses with late summer feeds only for tolerant species.
