Need help to become a better gardener.

Joseph lyons ,

Are there different recommendations for the gulf coast (closer to the water)? For example, there are huge temperature differences even between Destin and Crestview, summers are much cooler here on the coast (as well as warmer in the winter).

Shelly,

Very helpful will be making purchases in the near future!

Tony ,

Thank you so much!! Very helpful.

Win Tate,

These are for outside planting. Although, this year it would be best to plant indoor since Florida is going thru a freeze
