What to Plant By Month
This list of what to plant when is intended for use by County Agents and Master Gardeners in Texas Agricultural Extension Districts 3, 4, 7, and 8. Since those districts cover north central and much of central Texas, there is quite a bit of variability within the area. Therefore, take that into consideration and modify this list by as much as 1-2 weeks, depending on your location
