As the temperatures cool and the vibrant colors of autumn begin to paint the landscape, now is the ideal time to think about planting trees. Fall offers some of the best conditions for establishing new trees in Mountville, and at Root’s Nurseries, we take pride in helping homeowners choose the perfect varieties to enhance their properties year after year.

When it comes to fall planting, trees are an excellent investment in both beauty and value. Not only do they provide shade and structure, but they also bring seasonal color that transforms your yard into a breathtaking display. At Root’s, we grow and nurture a wide selection of trees right here in our own fields, allowing customers to see exactly what they’re getting before it’s planted. In fact, we’re one of the few nurseries in the area that allows you to personally select your trees from the field—a unique experience that ensures you find just the right size, shape and color for your landscape.
Fall is a particularly special time at Root’s Nurseries because it’s when we begin preparing for our tree digging season. Once the leaves have fallen and the trees have gone dormant, we can safely dig them up for transplanting. This dormancy period is crucial, as it allows the trees to handle the move with minimal stress and ensures strong root development over the winter months. By the time spring arrives, your newly planted trees will be ready to thrive in their new environment.
If you’re looking for trees that bring stunning fall color, Root’s has many options to choose from. Maple trees are always a favorite for their brilliant red and orange hues, while oaks add rich tones of russet and gold. Sweetgums, dogwoods and serviceberries also offer incredible seasonal displays, adding texture and interest to any landscape. Our team can help you select varieties that complement your property’s layout and existing plantings, ensuring a cohesive and vibrant result.
Planting trees in the fall not only enhances your yard’s appearance but also benefits the environment by improving air quality, providing wildlife habitat and stabilizing soil. Whether you’re adding a single ornamental tree or planning a larger landscape project, Root’s Nurseries is ready to help you make the most of this ideal planting season.
