What You Need To Know!
Calgary’s short growing season (about 100 frost-free days) makes choosing and planting annuals a little tricky—but with the right timing and plant selection, you can enjoy a stunning garden all season long.
Best time to plant: After the last frost, usually late May. Many gardeners use the May long weekend as a planting milestone.
Watch the weather: Calgary’s frosts can come early or late, so be ready with row covers or containers you can bring indoors.
Soil needs: Calgary soil is often clay-like or alkaline, so mixing in compost or organic matter helps annuals thrive.
