My wife and I just moved from a townhouse to an actual house with a backyard so we can garden again. We're around the Sarasota Area and the yard is really soft and sandy. Pretty sure something's digging under there which is why it's so soft... But they were there first so what're ya gonna do. Any suggestions for planting this summer? Definitely gonna try Okra
Congratulations, I didn't know anyone could afford a house in Sarasota right now, wow!
Yes to okra, it loves our summer, unless you have the nematodes that love it more than we do. Jalafuego hybrid jalapenos are robust plants and spicy peppers that can survive summer. Hibiscus likes our summer, and you are far enough south to grow mangoes.
For the garden garden you might do better with raised bed and some better soil over the sandy soil, but mangoes and citrus like it. "Well drained" as they say.
Oh God no we're still renting. We bounced around the idea of buying something but prices are insane, and we're not sure we want to settle in Florida. The home insurance cost and the increasing risk of big storms would make me too anxious.
Thanks for the advice! We were definitely thinking raised beds, but wanted to try our luck with a few in-ground things.
