Before planting it is a good idea to find your USDA Zone info to determine your garden schedule. The zone info helps tell us things like average date of last frost and lowest expected temperature for your area.

One way of figuring out when you can plant evolvulus is to refer to the USDA zone info for Cloquet.

The last month that you can plant evolvulus and expect a good harvest is probably August. Any later than that and your evolvulus may not have a chance to really do well. You can get started a couple of weeks earlier by starting your evolvulus indoors.
