Finally, fall is here. The weather is
becoming slightly cooler, and gar-
deners are slowly migrating back
outdoors after record-breaking heat
this summer. Now is a perfect time to
add a new tree or a grouping of shrubs
to the landscape. Or perhaps you have
an area in the landscape that needs
“remodeling” or rejuvenating. The
fall may be the best season to plant,
surpassing even the spring.
Many people prefer January
through March for planting, but the
fall months of September through
December have distinct advantages.
Fall planting follows the heat of sum-
mer, and precedes a cool winter sea-
son. Trees and shrubs planted use this
to good advantage. Plant roots grow
anytime the soil temperature is 40
degrees or higher, which may occur
all wintermTexas. Duringthe winter
months, the root systems of the fall-
planted specimens develop and be-
come established. When spring ar-
rives, this expanded root system can
support and take advantage of the full
surge of spring growth.
Fall planting is the optimum time
to plant balled and burlapped trees
and shrubs. Balled and burlapped
plants have ample time to recover
from transplanting and proliferate
roots before spring growth begins.
Remember however, all bare root
plants, including roses and pecan and
fruit trees should be planted in late
winter when they are completely dor-
mant.
When buying plants for your land-
scape, be sure to get healthy, well-
grown plants. Always buy from a

The world's leading foresic anthro-
pologist, Dr. Clyde Snow, presented
1999 Peace Builder Awards to five
Austin College students Oct 4, on
behalf of the Dallas Center for Survi-
vors ofTorture and Cherubim Media,
an international publishing house.
With Dr. Snow, was the president of
the Guatemala Forensic Anthropol-
ogy Foundation, Fredy Peccerelli,
whose organization received a dona-
tion in the names of award recipients
from Cherubim Media. • j
The 1999 Peace Builder Award
included sophomore Lydia Bean of
Tulia. She worked with anthropolo-
gist and Austin College associate
professor Dr. Terry Hoops to facili-
tate an international forensic anthro-
pology conference. They also worked
to bring Salvadoran musicians Grupo
Morazan to the Unites States in the
Spring of 1999, a tour which eventu-
ally included the United Nations, the
White House, and the U.S. Capitol
and was covered by all the major
networks nationally and internation-
ally. The tour raised money for a
music school in El Salvador.
Award recipients were chosen for
their work in calendar year 1999. To
qualify for the award, students must
have originated a global interest
project from scratch, in the absence
of precedent or directions the project
must have evolved out of interper-
sonal dialogue and negotiation, and
must have exhibited concrete steps
from compassion to understanding
and solidarity.
Winners of the Peace Builder
Awards must have demonstrated glo-
bal knowledge and understanding of
many cultures, and they must have
engaged in concrete actions as mes-
sengers of peace during the calendar
year 1999.

reputable dealer. Those in the plant
selling business year-round depend
on repeat customers, and only by
selling customers quality plants can
there be assurance of future business.
Beware of plant bargains. They can
easily turn out to be real headaches. A
bargain is no good if it dies. Theprice
tag, especially the cheapest one, is not
the best guide to quality.
All plants have growing require-
ments. Think about the plant’s needs
before you invest. Is it adapted to your
area’s soil? Will it grow in sun or
shade? Does it need a wet or dty
location? Is it cold hardy? Some nurs-
eries have this type of information on
tags beside the plant. If not, ask a
nursery professional or the county
Extension agent.
‘Plan before you plant’ is always a
good rale of thumb. Whether you are
planting a single plant or an entire
landscape, plan first, then plant. Good
planning is a worthwhile investment
of time that will pay off in greater
enjoyment of attractive and useful
home grounds, and in increasing the
value of your home. It’s much easier
to move plants on paper than to dig
themafier plantingin the wrongplace.
A plan saves many planting mis-
takes.
Every plant in the landscape should
serve a purpose. Ask yourself if you
want a plant for screening, for pri-
vacy, or for shade. How large will it be
five years from now? Plants, like
people, grow up. Remember, that a
small one-gallon size plant will look
entirely different after a few years of
growth in your landscape.
