What Can I Plant Now?

Pick your zone, measure your pot and choose a date. The planner checks which of 25 vegetables fit your container and are in their planting window, so you can see what you can plant now in pots, what’s coming up next, and what needs a bigger pot.

It’s built from university extension guides, listed at the bottom of the page. Where no guide gives a figure, we say so and mark it as our estimate. Use your own average frost dates for the best results.
