Before planting it is a good idea to find your USDA Zone info to figure out your garden schedule. The zone info helps tell us things like average date of last frost and lowest expected temperature for your area.

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

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.

Since anagallis do ok in moderate cold 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 Clovis is February. However, you really should wait until March if you don't want to take any chances.

The last month that you can plant anagallis and expect a good harvest is probably September. You probably don't want to wait any later than that or else your anagallis may not have a chance to grow to maturity. You can get started a couple of weeks earlier by starting your anagallis indoors.

Last Frost Date

In Clovis the average date of last frost happens on February 15. It might get as low as 25°F during the coldest months of winter.
