One of the best tools that you have as gardeners to help us determine your gardening schedule is the USDA zone info. The zone info helps tell us things like average date of last frost and lowest expected temperature for your area.

In Concord you can figure out when it's the best time to plant bacopa by looking at the USDA zone info.

Planting Calendar for Bacopa

Frost tolerance for bacopa:	Tolerant of a very small amount of frost.
When to plant:	Up to 3 weeks before last frost.

Since bacopa are barely cold tolerant you can plant them a bit earlier in the year than more sensitive plants.

The earliest that you can plant bacopa in Concord is March. However, you really should wait until April if you don't want to take any chances.

The last month that you can plant bacopa and expect a good harvest is probably August. You probably don't want to wait any later than that or else your bacopa may not have a chance to grow to maturity. If you are starting your bacopa indoors then you might be able to get away with starting them a couple of weeks earlier.

Last Frost Date

On average the last frost when the weather gets warmer is on April 15 in Concord. You should expect an average low temperature of 5°F in the coldest months of winter.

Half of the time in Concord you get surprised by a frost after April 15 so just be sure to be ready to cover your bacopa in the event of one of those late frosts.
