One of the best tools that you have as gardeners to help us figure out 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 Wyoming you can figure out when you can plant hamelia by checking out the USDA zone info.

Planting Calendar for Hamelia

Frost tolerance for hamelia:	Not tolerant of frost.
When to plant:	After the last frost.

You really shouldn't plant hamelia until after the last frost has passed because they do not do well in cold weather.

The earliest that you can plant hamelia in Wyoming 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 hamelia and expect a good harvest is probably August. Any later than that and your hamelia may not have a chance to fully mature. Starting your hamelia indoors is a great way to get them started a couple of weeks earlier.

Last Frost Date

The average date of last frost is April 15 in Wyoming. It might get as low as -15°F during the coldest months of winter.

Just be sure to remember that the actual date of last frost is an average because it is based on the USDA zone info for Wyoming and it is different every year. Half of the time in Wyoming it frosts late in the year after April 15 so make sure that you are ready to protect your hamelia in the event of one of those late frosts.
