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.

In Dublin you can determine when it's possible to plant myosotis by referring to the USDA zone info.

Planting Calendar for Myosotis

Frost tolerance for myosotis:	Tolerant of some frost.
When to plant:	Up to 5 weeks before last frost.

Since myosotis do well in moderate cold you can plant them a little earlier in the year than more sensitive plants.

The earliest that you can plant myosotis in Dublin 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 myosotis and expect a good harvest is probably September. You probably don't want to wait any later than that or else your myosotis may not have a chance to fully mature. Starting your myosotis indoors is a great way to get them started a few weeks earlier.

Last Frost Date
