Criteria for approximability of functions by solutions of homogeneous second order elliptic equations (with constant complex coefficients) in the norms of the Whitney $C^1$-spaces on compact sets in $\mathbb R^2$ are obtained in terms of the respective $C^1$-capacities. It is proved that the mentioned $C^1$-capacities are comparable to the classic $C$-analytic capacity, and so have a proper geometric measure characterization.
