Also known as the pitaya, pitahaya, or strawberry pear, dragon fruit is native to Mexico, Central America, and South America, and it prefers more humidity and water than your average cactus! The dragon fruit plant was first cultivated by the Mayans and Aztecs in the 13th century, and the fruit gets its color from betacyanins, a naturally occurring pigment that also gives beets and Swiss chard their characteristic reddish-purple color šŸ”“ā 
⁠
Since they bloom at night, wild dragon fruit plants are primarily pollinated by nocturnal pollinators like moths and bats in warmer regions. Dragon fruit thrives when temperatures are between 65 and 80°F, and plants won’t survive freezing temperatures. So, if you grow these plants indoors, make sure to keep them away from drafty windows in winter! ⁠

When is your LAST frost date this year? ā„ļø While traditional frost dates remain a trusted foundation, year-to-year variations are real! They can influence how early you can begin planting your garden, how much flexibility you have for staggered plantings, and how cautiously you need to proceed. ⁠
⁠
🟢 If your region is shaded green, the last spring frost is expected to arrive EARLIER than average—potentially by a week or two.⁠
⁠
🟔 If your region is shaded yellow, the last spring frost is expected to be close to the historical AVERAGE, give or take a week.⁠
⁠
šŸ”µ If your region is shaded blue, the last spring frost is expected to arrive LATER than average—again, usually by a week or two.⁠
⁠
By blending our long-range weather forecasts with our gardening expertise, here's a slightly clearer picture of when frost is likely to end in 2026. For more details and a closer look at your region, check out or the link in bio ā„ļøā

Calathea is a favorite among plant enthusiasts, and for good reason! 🪓 Calathea resembles Maranta (known as the prayer plant) but is, in fact, its own plant, but both prefer the same growing conditions so no worries if you're not sure which one you have! šŸ˜‰ ⁠
⁠
Adapted to grow in the rainforest understory, calathea tolerate low light conditions. However, they look their perkiest and most colorful when kept in bright indirect light. Plus, they are non-toxic to pets. However, their demanding humidity and watering preferences may make them a challenge to a beginner houseplant keeper. Find a few of our favorite varieties at the link in bio.⁠

Tonight is January's Last Quarter Moon! šŸŒ— This phase got its name because, at this point, the Moon has traveled 3/4 of the way through its orbit and has just one more (the last) quarter to complete one revolution. This stage is sometimes also called the Third Quarter. At this stage, we see 1/2 of the Moon’s surface lit šŸŒ— ⁠

LOOK UP, Stargazers! āœØļø Tomorrow night, January 10, you can see Jupiter in opposition, at its closest appearance of the year. But the brightest ā€œstarā€ of the night sky is Sirius, the Dog Star. To find it in the night sky, just look up towards Orion, the Hunter, and his bright belt. Then, follow it downward. Orion’s Belt always points to the blue-white Sirius. ⁠
⁠
Then, on January 27, the Moon hovers to the left of the famous ā€œSeven Sistersā€ Pleiades star cluster, a stunning scene when viewed through binoculars. And on the 30th, all night, you can view Jupiter hovering right below a nearly Full Moon āœØļø See more celestial events for this month at the link in bio!⁠

Plan your 2026 veggie garden in 10 simple steps! šŸ„• Like many new things, your number one consideration is location, location, location! Choosing the right location for your garden goes a long way to ensuring its success. You want somewhere that gets as much sunshine as possible—at least 8 hours of direct sun a day is ideal. ⁠
⁠
It’s worth noting where the shadows fall on a sunny day and at different times of the year—including in summer when overhead trees will be in leaf—so you can accurately judge how sunny the area you have in mind will likely be šŸ„•ā

Three to four times a year, the planet Mercury appears to reverse its course across the night sky. In astrology, these periods are called Mercury retrograde and are traditionally linked to confusion, delays, and disruptions in communication, travel, and decision-making. Yikes!⁠
⁠
Take note now of when these periods of perceived retrograde motion occur this year. Don't plan any trips, events, weddings, ceremonies, or anything you don't want to be chaotic during these times! More at the link in bio.⁠

To our Friends and Fans:

You may have heard The Farmer’s Almanac, based out of Lewiston, ME, is ceasing publication after an incredible 200+ year run.

Rest assured, as sure as the Sun will rise, The Old Farmer’s Almanac—with our familiar yellow cover and 80 percent accurate weather forecasts—will be around for generations to come.
