The USDA Zone info is a great tool for gardeners to help us determine your gardening schedule. The most important data that the zone info tells us is average last frost and the lowest expected temperature for your area.

One way of determining when you can plant bacopa is to refer to the USDA zone info for Wildwood.

Planting Calendar for Bacopa

The earliest that you can plant bacopa in Wildwood is March. However, you really should wait until April if you don't want to take any chances.

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