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

In Zone 12b you can determine when to plant myosotis by looking at the USDA zone info.

Planting Calendar for Myosotis
