Before planting it is a good idea to find your USDA Zone info to determine 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.

It's possible to determine when you can plant sedum by looking at the USDA zone info for Wasco.

Planting Calendar for Sedum

Frost tolerance for sedum:	Very tolerant of frost.
When to plant:	Up to 7 weeks before last frost.

Since sedum are one of those plants that can tolerate quite a bit of cold weather you can plant them much earlier in the year than plants that are more sensitive to the cold.

The earliest that you can plant sedum in Wasco is January. However, you really should wait until February if you don't want to take any chances.

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