One of the best tools that you have as gardeners to help us figure out 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.

By referring to the USDA zone info for Woodland it's possible to estimate when you can plant begonias.

Begonias are not cold tolerant which means that you need to wait until it warms up after the last frost has passed before you can plant them.

The last month that you can plant begonias and expect a good harvest is probably September. Any later than that and your begonias may not have a chance to fully mature. You can get started a little bit earlier by starting your begonias indoors.
