In today’s video, I’m sharing 10 seeds to start right now in March for a productive spring and summer garden here in zone 9A, southeast Louisiana. From beautiful flowers like red sunflowers, echinacea, and peppermint stick balsam, to essential herbs like basil, thyme, and oregano, and warm-season vegetables like cucumbers, zucchini, and eggplant — these are the seeds I’m planting this week to stay ahead of the heat and keep my garden thriving. March is a critical time for seed starting, especially in warmer climates where timing can make or break your harvest, so I’m walking you through exactly what I’m planting, why it matters, and how I approach succession sowing for continuous harvests. Plus, I’m sharing a simple tip for dealing with bird pressure in the garden.
