The USDA Zone info is a great tool for gardeners to help us estimate your gardening schedule. The most important data that the zone info tells us is average last frost and the lowest expected temperature for your area.

One way of getting a good idea when it's possible to plant anagallis is to check out the USDA zone info for Mobile.

Planting Calendar for Anagallis

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

Anagallis do well in some cold which tells us that you can plant them just a tiny bit earlier in the year than other frost tender plants.

The earliest that you can plant anagallis in Mobile 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 anagallis and expect a good harvest is probably August. Any later than that and your anagallis may not have a chance to fully mature. Starting your anagallis indoors is a great way to get them started a couple of weeks earlier.

Last Frost Date

In Mobile the average date of last frost happens on March 15. It might get as low as 15°F during the coldest months of winter.

Since the USDA zone info for Mobile is not always accurate the actual date of last frost can change quite a bit from year to year. Since half of the time in Mobile last frost occurs after March 15 be ready to protect your anagallis if you have a surprise late frost.
