Well, here we are, late March! Are you ready to design the layout of your garden?

For those who have space, those who’ve not planted a garden before, or those who get to plan theirs anew every year, you need to have a rough plan. It will give you an idea how many seedlings you should start or have on hand of each kind of plant.

First, know that we gardeners always get overambitious and end up tending tonnes of seedlings we have to give away! What’s worse is planting seeds that never germinate, or else germinate and fail. Planning helps deal with this disappointment.
