From New England where all the plants are dormant this time of year, so outdoor gardening is not an option. However, my (new to me) home in the Villages has flowering plants. What I need to know, is Florida in the "winter" an acceptable time to do any planting? I would love to add some additional color to my yard, but am I wasting time and money. The garden sections of the big box stores are displaying a very limited variety of plantings....is that because not much will grow this time of year? Any info would be helpful...thank you
