I have 6 earth boxes and would like to know if anyone has a book or website that will suggest what to plant each month of the year here in Florida.
Hope you like the picture I've attached...
What to plant month to month
Oh wow, your shelving system is way cool!! I wanna do that.
Is there a FL gardening magazine? I used to get Texas Gardener and it has a to do list for each month/zone in TX and they offer a calendar each year with the same idea.

Here is a planting guide for central Fl. You can go to http://earthboxresearch.com/ and print it from there. I posted this this morning and just noticed it was not there. So here it is again, maybe. Ed
