Bacopa do well in a tiny bit of cold which tells us that you can plant them just a tiny bit earlier in the year than other plants that might not handle the cold.

The last month that you can plant bacopa and expect a good harvest is probably August. You probably don't want to wait any later than that or else your bacopa may not have a chance to fully mature. If you are starting your bacopa indoors then you might be able to get away with starting them a little bit earlier.
