Before planting it is a good idea to find your USDA Zone info to determine your garden schedule. The zone info helps tell us things like average date of last frost and lowest expected temperature for your area.

The first chance to plant celosia in Woodland should be estimated by checking out the USDA zone info.

Planting Calendar for Celosia

Frost tolerance for celosia:	Not tolerant of frost.
When to plant:	After the last frost when the weather gets warmer.

It's probably a bad idea to plant celosia until after the last frost has passed because they require warm weather.

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

The last month that you can plant celosia and expect a good harvest is probably August. If you wait any later than that and your celosia may not have a chance to really do well. Starting your celosia indoors is a great way to get them started a couple of weeks earlier.
