One of the best tools that you have as gardeners to help us estimate 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.

A way of figuring out when it's possible to plant sagina is to use the USDA zone info for Eunice.

Planting Calendar for Sagina

Frost tolerance for sagina:	Tolerant of a very small amount of frost.
When to plant:	Up to 3 weeks before last frost.

Sagina are barely cold tolerant which means that you can get them planted just a bit earlier than other frost tender plants.

The earliest that you can plant sagina in Eunice 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 sagina and expect a good harvest is probably September. Any later than that and your sagina may not have a chance to grow to maturity. Starting your sagina indoors is a great way to get them started a few weeks earlier.

Last Frost Date

The average date of last frost is February 15 in Eunice. It might get as low as 20°F during the coldest months of winter.

Since the USDA zone info for Eunice is not always accurate the actual date of last frost changes from year to year. Half of the time in Eunice there is a last frost after February 15 so make sure that you are ready to cover your sagina if you have a late frost.
