Before planting it is a good idea to find your USDA Zone info to determine your garden schedule. The most important data that the zone info tells us is average last frost and the lowest expected temperature for your area.

A way of figuring out when it's possible to plant statice is to use the USDA zone info for Tulia.

Planting Calendar for Statice

Frost tolerance for statice:	Tolerant of some frost.
When to plant:	Up to 5 weeks before last frost.

Statice do well in moderate cold which means that you can plant them a little bit earlier in the year than more sensitive plants.

The earliest that you can plant statice in Tulia 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 statice and expect a good harvest is probably September. You probably don't want to wait any later than that or else your statice may not have a chance to fully mature. If you are starting your statice indoors then you might be able to get away with starting them a little bit earlier.

Last Frost Date

On average the last frost is on April 15 in Tulia. It might get as low as 0°F during the coldest months of winter.

Since the USDA zone info for Tulia is not always accurate the actual date of last frost can change quite a bit from year to year. Half of the time in Tulia you get a frost after April 15 so always be ready to protect your statice if you have a late frost.
