March planting: Gardening advice

Most plants should be planted at a specific time or season - that's when they can benefit from weather and sunlight the most.

Typically, lots of plants are the best suitable for March planting - at least, the second half of it.

Here are a few examples of plants you need to start growing in the beginning of spring.

Early Spring Flowers

You can plant flowers like daffodils, tulips, and crocuses. They add color to your garden after a long winter.

Cool-Season Vegetables

Some vegetables like lettuce, spinach, peas, and carrots can be planted in March. They like the cool weather of early spring.

Herbs

Herbs like parsley, chives, and cilantro can be planted in pots or your garden. They grow well in the spring.

Fruit Trees and Shrubs

If you have space, consider planting fruit trees or shrubs like blueberries and strawberries. March is a good time to start them.

Perennials

Perennial flowers, which come back each year, can be planted in early spring. They include plants like daylilies and hostas.

Bulbs

Besides tulips and daffodils, you can also plant bulbs like hyacinths and grape hyacinths in March.

Frost-Tolerant Plants

Some plants can handle a little cold. You can try things like pansies and snapdragons in March.

Conclusion

The weather in March can be quite unpredictable, so make sure you only plant the most resilient and strong plants in your garden.
