WELCOME TO GARDENING IN FLORIDA
Whether you are new to the state or just new to gardening, you are about to have lots of fun. You’ll enjoy colorful flowers and reap harvests from fruit and vegetable plants in your own yard. Even if you already have some local gardening experience, there is always more to learn and new adventures ahead.
Florida is different from most other states. It’s a long state, almost 900 miles (1,448 km) from the Pensacola point in the Panhandle to the tip of the Keys. There is frost-free growing in the southern part of the state and there are multiple freezes in the north.
ANNUALS FOR FLORIDA
Florida gardeners have learned that a quick way to add color to the landscape is to use annual flowers. Many can be purchased in bloom at local garden centers to bring home and create an instant garden, but don’t buy plants that have been grown using systemic insecticides, because they may harm pollinators and butterfly caterpillars. As the name annual implies, the plants last only one season or maybe longer in South Florida. However, they offer plenty of color for 6 to 8 weeks or more. A few, including geraniums, impatiens, and coleus, continue growing until seasonal changes in temperature cause decline.
BULBS FOR FLORIDA
Close your eyes and think of some plants that grow from bulbs. What immediately comes to mind? Admit it: you see tulips, daffodils, crocus, and hyacinths.
Now erase that image, because most northern bulbs don’t grow well in Florida. You can force a few, but forcing is a chore. Happily, you will find that some of our Florida favorites rival their northern relatives. Some can be in bloom at just about any time of year. Many have extended flowering seasons, so you might see them in bloom several times a year.
We use a broad definition of bulb in this chapter. A true bulb resembles an onion—it has some residual roots, a small stem portion, and lots of leaves packed closely together. (Some true Florida bulbs are amaryllis, crinum, and rain lilies.) Many other plants that we call bulbs are technically classified as stems and include corms, tubers, tuberous roots, and rhizomes.

PLANNING
Consider the hardiness and heat tolerance of the plants. Choose only those that will do well in your location.
Look at pest problems associated with the crop.
Make sure you have the needed room. Some, like avocados, grapefruits, and oranges, can grow quite large.
Realize there may be pruning, thinning, and other chores required. If your time is limited, pick the plants that need the least amount of extra care. Many gardeners select only one or two favorites with good production
PLANTING
Normal planting procedures are used. Specific instructions are provided for each crop in this section. Most fruiting plants, especially citrus, grow fine in any well-drained Florida soil. If the site is not immediately ready for your new plant, it can be held for a week or two in the nursery container. It is best if the wait is not too long.
