One of the first steps you take when you are estimating your gardening schedule is find your USDA Zone info. The zone info helps tell us things like average date of last frost and lowest expected temperature for your area.

In Lindsay you can determine when it's possible to plant nemesia by using the USDA zone info.

Nemesia do not do well in cold weather which tells us that it's important to wait until it warms up after the last frost when the weather gets warmer before you can plant them.

The earliest that you can plant nemesia in Lindsay 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 nemesia and expect a good harvest is probably September. Any later than that and your nemesia may not have a chance to fully mature. If you are starting your nemesia indoors then you might be able to get away with starting them a couple of weeks earlier.
