It's a bad idea to plant scutellaria until after all chance of frost has passed because they are not cold tolerant.

The earliest that you can plant scutellaria in Greenacres 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 scutellaria and expect a good harvest is probably September. You probably don't want to wait any later than that or else your scutellaria may not have a chance to fully mature. If you are starting your scutellaria indoors then you might be able to get away with starting them a couple of weeks earlier.
