The USDA Zone info is a great tool for gardeners to help us estimate 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.

A common way of estimating when to plant sedum is to examine the USDA zone info for Huntingdon.

When to plant:	Up to 7 weeks before last frost.

Since sedum are one of those plants that can tolerate quite a bit of cold weather you can plant them earlier in the year than other plants that might not handle the cold.

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

The last month that you can plant sedum and expect a good harvest is probably September. Any later than that and your sedum may not have a chance to really do well. If you are starting your sedum indoors then you might be able to get away with starting them a couple of weeks earlier.
