Is it too late in the season to plant flowers for a little corner garden?

I want to plant a little corner garden, about 3x4 ft, in my backyard. I am thinking of getting one of those roll out flower seed mats and some flowering plants intermingled. Is it too late in the season for this?

Is it too late in the season to plant flowers for a little corner garden?
no, definitely not too late, and actually, it may actually be too early. if your area is still expecting frost or snow, then i'd wait until atleast a week after the danger of frost is gone, if it's already past, then go for it, and show off that green thumb!


good luck!
Reply:It depends on the planting zone you are in. In NJ, it's just about the right time. You want to wait until you've definitely had your last frost.
Reply:no its not. just be sure there will be NO cold or frosty nights like we are still having in Michigan. some plants are sensitive %26amp; will die easy.
Reply:Usually May 15th is the day I plant flowers. I live in southeast Michigan. It all depends on where you live, the farther south you live, the earlier you can plant.
Reply:It depends on where you are geographically. But as a rule of thumb it is still early in the planting season. Unless your from Australia.
Reply:Look at the instructions on the Roll-out - it will tell you when to plant in your zone. It doesn't seem it's too late (the cold weather isn't that far behind) - you just won't enjoy the flowers as long, before winter sets in again... but, gee, only by a matter of weeks.





Go for it!
Reply:it is a bit too early right now. make sure no snow is coming back for the rest of the year until winter.
Reply:it's depends on the zone you live in and the location and the amount of sunlight. you still have time to plant a flower bed. just make sure you read the zone info.
Reply:If you go the shop where you plan to purchase your seed mat, and read the packaging it should give a guide that includes the recommended planting times by zone. There may be a chart either on the package or at the store that can help you determine which zone you are in. The dates are not carved in stone but are highly recommended. You could push the dates a little this year, and then next year you could have a better idea of what you need to do and when.
Reply:No go ahead and plant them . Make sure that you keep them well watered . I have never had any luck with the flower mats . It is easier to get bedding plants and plant them . Best of Luck with your garden.
Reply:Depending on you live it might be. If you're in New England this is planting season, so get out there... I should know, I just spent the whole weekend preping the yard for a garden and pulling out a TON of roots from an old tree (fun stuff...). Anyway, there's most likely plenty of time for you to still plant your garden, but you might want to check where you live and see when the season starts and all that stuff...
Reply:it might be too early in the season


depending where you live
Reply:The season is just starting. Depending on where you live it is probably just about time to start planting. Check with your local garden center.
Reply:Go to your local nursery.
Reply:It depends on the weather is it cold or is it warm. If its warm and it can get sun then yes.
