One of the best tools that you have as gardeners to help us determine your gardening schedule is the USDA zone info. The most important data that the zone info tells us is average last frost and the lowest expected temperature for your area.

In Lebanon you can estimate when it's a good idea to plant feverfew by reviewing the USDA zone info.

Planting Calendar for Feverfew

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

Feverfew are one of those plants that can tolerate a little bit of cold weather which means that you can get them planted earlier than other plants that might not handle the cold.

The earliest that you can plant feverfew in Lebanon 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 feverfew and expect a good harvest is probably September. Any later than that and your feverfew may not have a chance to fully mature. If you are starting your feverfew indoors then you might be able to get away with starting them a few weeks earlier.

Last Frost Date

The average date of last frost is April 15 in Lebanon. You can expect an average low temperature of -5°F in the coldest months of winter.

Remember that the actual date of last frost is just an average because it is based on the USDA zone info for Lebanon and it changes from year to year. Half of the time in Lebanon you get a frost after April 15 so always be ready to protect your feverfew in the event of a surprise late frost.
