You can estimate when it's a good idea to plant celosia in Berne by checking out the USDA zone info.

Planting Calendar for Celosia

When to plant:	After the last frost when the weather gets warmer.

Celosia require warm weather which means that it is important to wait until it warms up after the last frost before you can plant them.

The earliest that you can plant celosia in Berne is April. However, you really should wait until May if you don't want to take any chances.

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