Myosotis do well in some cold which tells us that you can plant them just a bit earlier in the year than more sensitive plants.

The last month that you can plant myosotis and expect a good harvest is probably October. You probably don't want to wait any later than that or else your myosotis may not have a chance to fully mature. You can get started a couple of weeks earlier by starting your myosotis indoors.
