What should I do with my lawn and curb appeal at this time of year? Both are ugly and need a makeover but I’m thinking anything I do now would die by December. Any thoughts?

Dig up any dead or unwanted bushes. You can decorate with some fall mums if you want to add some color. It might also be a good time to trim and shape bushes and plants, since they've had a summer of active growth. You could probably lay a little fresh mulch to spruce it up a bit. Take an edger tool and clean up any curb areas, island edges, sidewalks, etc. Remove any weeds if you see obvious ones.

Now is the ideal time to plant new bushes and trees. They will spend the winter growing their root structure rather than their canopy which will lead to a stronger plant ready for spring.

I always advocate for habitat over lawn. Perhaps consider removing it in favor of putting in native plants

Does anyone know what’s going on with my philodendron?

Good thing, bad thing, or just a thing that happens? Anyone have some insight?
