Before planting it is a good idea to find your USDA Zone info to estimate your garden schedule. The most important data that the zone info tells us is average last frost and the lowest expected temperature for your area.

A way of determining when it's possible to plant primroses is to consult the USDA zone info for Jordan.

The last month that you can plant primroses and expect a good harvest is probably August. Any later than that and your primroses may not have a chance to really do well. Starting your primroses indoors is a great way to get them started a little bit earlier.
