One of the best tools that you have as gardeners to help us determine your gardening schedule is the USDA zone info. The most important data that the zone info tells us is average last frost and the lowest expected temperature for your area.

You should be able to estimate when you can plant anagallis by checking out the USDA zone info for Auburn.

Planting Calendar for Anagallis

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

Anagallis tend to make it in a tiny bit of cold which means that you can plant them just a tiny bit earlier in the year than other plants that might not handle the cold.

The earliest that you can plant anagallis in Auburn 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 anagallis and expect a good harvest is probably August. You probably don't want to wait any later than that or else your anagallis may not have a chance to really do well. You can get started a couple of weeks earlier by starting your anagallis indoors.

Last Frost Date

The average date of last frost is March 15 in Auburn. You can expect an average low temperature of 15°F in the coldest months of winter.

Since the USDA zone info for Auburn is not always accurate the actual date of last frost changes from year to year. Half of the time in Auburn it frosts late in the year after March 15 so always be ready to cover your anagallis if you have one of those late frosts.
