When should you plant flowers? The short answer is this:

🌱Start seeds indoors weeks before your last frost date
🌻Transplant hardy flowers before or at last frost
🌸Plant tender annuals after frost danger passes
🌷Plant spring bulbs in fall, summer bulbs in spring

However. . .

Different plants need differing amounts of lead time before they are ready to be transplanted into the garden. Starting too soon can result in a weak, lanky plant, while starting too late can give you one that is just not ready for the outside world—both will struggle to survive!

Whichever flowers you're wondering about, wonder no more! Find our guide at Almanac.com/when-plant-flowers

May Day (May 1) is a holiday rich in folklore, celebrating the return of spring! As a child, many of us remember our grandparents or parents leaving delightful little May Day baskets, and dancing around the maypole at school. Learn more about May Day.

Which edible flowers are your favorites? 🌸 Edible landscaping makes exploring your yard even more exciting! If you already have a garden, you can easily add some edible garden plants to your flower bed or home landscaping.

It’s important to choose edible plants that are ornamental, but not especially appealing to wildlife. If you have bright orange or yellow bulbs, mix in a few edible flowers to fill in the ground space.

Here are a few fun ideas to incorporate edible flowers and edible plants into your garden. Almanac.com/edible-garden-plants
