is not all about closing up shop

English to Spanish Other Botany
Plant spring bulbs. Fall is not all about closing up shop. It's also the perfect time to plant spring flowering bulbs like daffodils and tulips
Es un texto que habal de la llegada del otoño y de cómo deberiamos limpiar el jardin y plantar plantas y demás.
Gracias!!

El otoño no implica necesariamente cerrar el negocio.

Creo que todos tenemos la idea correcta.

"is not all about closing shop" means that although a lot of the seasonal life of the plants dies out in the fall, it is also the time for renewal and planting new bulbs, etc.

no consiste en "cerrar la tienda" (o en ponerse a descansar)

el otoño no es solamente cuestión de recoger todo

Closing up shop is a little bit OTT if we take it literally - not closing down completely but closing down operations temporarily - hence this idea for a translation. HTH

El otoño no es sólo un final sino también un comienzo

es decir que otoño no es sólo el fin de temporada del año en curso sino también el comienzo del próximo año.
