When can you plant in Anahuac, TX?
The last spring frost here typically falls around 01/25, about 150 days from today. The first fall frost typically arrives around 01/01, about 348 frost-free days later.
The USDA Plant Hardiness Zone Map puts Anahuac in Zone 9b (25 to 30°F average annual minimum); frost dates are NOAA's 1991-2020 station normal, not this year's forecast.
What to do before the first frost

Why 01/25 isn't a guarantee
01/25 is the middle of 30 years of NOAA records, not a promise. Plant by 02/21 and you're betting against frost in roughly 9 years out of 10. 12/23 is the safer bet, historically only a 1-in-10 chance of frost that late.
