As Still T ADD mentioined, the soil here in Florida, in many places, is really not conducive to good gardening. That is why I am going with the "Potting Mix" and not the "Potting Soil" which is basically topsoil.
Central Florida is different from South Florida which is different from North Florida which is different from the panhandle of Florida. Florida is a very long State. Drive from Key West to Pensacola and it is nearly 1,000 miles, almost the distance from Miami to New York.
Apples, peaches and pears are grown in the north, a lot of citrus fruits are grown more in the central parts and tropical fruit such as mangos, papayas and guayabas are grown in the south. So much depends on where in Florida you plan to move to. But in general, the further north you are in the State, the closer the growing seasons will be to what is typical in the rest of the Southeast. It all depends on where you are in the State.
