In Sebring you can determine when to plant pyrethrum by reviewing the USDA zone info.

Planting Calendar for Pyrethrum

Since pyrethrum are moderately cold tolerant you can plant them just a bit earlier in the year than more sensitive plants.

The earliest that you can plant pyrethrum in Sebring 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 pyrethrum and expect a good harvest is probably October. You probably don't want to wait any later than that or else your pyrethrum may not have a chance to really do well. Starting your pyrethrum indoors is a great way to get them started a little bit earlier.
