🌿 Florida Vegetable, Herb & Flower Planting Guide (Hardcopy)
Your complete Florida gardening reference — tailored for our unique growing zones. This full-color, beautifully printed guide takes the guesswork out of when and what to plant so you can grow confidently all year long.
✅ What’s Inside
- Covers vegetables, herbs, and flowers for every Florida season
- Month-by-month planting schedules that tell you exactly what to transplant and direct sow
- Monthly preparation reminders for prep actions such as seed starting, pre-ordering strawberry starts, or vernalizing seed garlic
- Region-specific timing for North, Central, and South Florida
- Includes both "What to Plant Now" and "What to Prep Now" sections
📍 Choose Your Region
Select from three versions designed specifically for Florida’s unique microclimates:
- North Florida — cooler winters and shorter summers. For the purpose of this guide, North Florida is considered all of Florida North of State Road 40.
- Central Florida — balanced growing seasons and year-round potential. For the purpose of this guide, Central Florida is considered all of Florida South of State Road 40 and North of State Road 70.
- South Florida — tropical timing for heat-loving crops. For the purpose of this guide, South Florida is considered all of Florida South of State Road 70.
If you're on the border between North and Central, I recommend North. It is more cautious about avoiding frost in late winter.
If you're on the border between Central and South, I recommend South. It is more cautious about waiting for temperatures to drop before planting cool weather crops in fall.
Choose your region above, and grow with confidence — no more guessing what thrives where you live!
How Seed Starting Is Shown in This Guide
You’ll notice that “Start Seeds” tasks often appear one month before the planting window for a crop. This is intentional. Many Florida crops need to be started early so transplants are ready as soon as planting conditions are right.
While many vegetables can be succession-sown, this guide does not list repeated seed-starting cycles. That choice was made to keep the guide clear, beginner-friendly, and aligned with the timing you’ll see in my videos and other Florida gardening content.
Instead, the guide focuses on the two main seed-starting waves Florida gardeners typically follow:
-
Late summer (fall planting with both warm & cool season crops)
-
Mid-winter (warm-season crops like tomatoes, peppers, and eggplant)
This approach keeps planning simple without overwhelming you with extra pages or conflicting timelines.

So helpful! Not only does it tell me what to start and when it tells me what to start in pots from seed vs direct sowing. Knowing sun/shade and water requirements would also be helpful. My garden is shaded on the south side and parts of the west side are 12+hrs of sun. I also need drought tolerant plant idea for my front yard which gets too much sun and not enough water. HOA requires a green lawn but there's a county water ban🤯
Thanks Jenn!
Simple, but very helpful.
Very informative and useful Thank you
This has been one of the best purchases I have made for my gardening experience here in Central Florida. It tells me what to start from seed, when to start it and when to transplant it out to the garden. I like it so much I have a digital copy that I have on my phone and my Kindle, and I also have a hardcopy as well. If you live in Florida you will not be disappointed with ordering one or both of these. They are available for North, Central and Southern Florida.

Great info
I was so impressed with how well thought out and detailed this manual was! I have purchased several more copies and given them to my friends and neighbors!!
Love the Planting Guide. As a beginner gardener this has been a helpful guide.
Perfect book to plan your year around what will grow in the challenging Florida climate!
This is exactly what I needed. I’m a beginner, I purchased the vertical garden then felt stuck on what to plant and when. This book helped me prepare for the next month and what to plant in the current month. I will write in the book to add when do they harvest. I also love your videos.
Exactly what I have been looking for
easy to follow
It is a great guide.
This is thoroughly thought out and well written. I like the way it I'ts broken down by category and color coded. I will enjoy putting this to good use. Thank you.
I feel greater confidence now with my area of Florida maped out by the seasons. Probably less lost products with the planting guide. Looking forward to a fruitful year. Thanks for all your work.
I love the layout. I've learned a lot about the different varieties within a crop. I'm amazed at the number of different flowers that can be grown in the fall! The beds and gardens I now have will have to be expanded. I wish this rain would stop so I could get out there and garden!
I ordered for the wrong part of Fl. Need the Northern guide !!
Easy peasy! My kind of guide.
Game Changer! Nothing like having empirical data to aid in gardening. Still a little research needed due to being on the line splitting North and Central growing zones.
I love my book
I have been reading it and used it as my planting guide!
Thank you 😊. I’m very happy with it.
This will save me years of trying to figure out what to plant and when to plant. Can’t wait to finish setting up my garden.
It's useful however overpriced
Very good information
Being from Maine, gardening here in Florida is confusing to say the least. The book is great! Very informative ands easy to understand!
Great planting guide! So Glad it shows both what to start indoors and what to plant out in the garden! It’s Organized and easy to follow! Love it!
I'm not sure how I feel about the book. Give me another week
Very helpful for my planting schedule. I have always struggled to get any timing at all correct or at least close. It would be nice if planting, pruning and fertilizing for fruit trees (especially those in pots) could be added - I struggle especially with pruning timelines
The guide is laid out well. I'll get started using it later this fall. Still trying to settle in to our new place. Will leave feedback as I go forward. Thanks,
I was planning like I was still in Alabama. This gives me a better view of what I need to start when
Love it!
I bought it for my husband. We’ve been here 3 years and haven’t been able to get anything to grow. I got this for him. In Michigan, you only have to plant one zucchini plant because they are so very prolific. Here, our plants got flowers, but never set fruit. I’m hoping that the book will help us with our gardening.
Thank you for the guide. This is a great addition to my library here in Gulf Breeze.
