In Champlin you can determine when to plant sutera by reviewing the USDA zone info.

Planting Calendar for Sutera

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

Sutera are barely cold tolerant which means that you can plant them slightly earlier than other plants that might not handle the cold.

The earliest that you can plant sutera in Champlin 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 sutera and expect a good harvest is probably August. You probably don't want to wait any later than that or else your sutera may not have a chance to grow to maturity. If you are starting your sutera indoors then you might be able to get away with starting them a couple of weeks earlier.
