Planting Calendar for Sagina

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

Since sagina are one of those plants that can tolerate a tiny bit of cold weather you can plant them just a tiny bit earlier in the year than plants that are more sensitive to the cold.

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