When is the proper time to plant them?

Not sure what zone you live in. I would plant when grass starts to green up.

I'm in zone 9--planted in July which was late, but they grew and produced. Probably early spring when planting other things would be good.

If you have them plant them as soon as possible. You can even plant them in a flower pot with sand and keep them in a cool dark place until you can plant outside

I am Zone 5a, in western new york, and I planned mine after last spring frost, for me it was May 15th. So Spring planting definitely. By Labor Day they were over 6 feet tall.

Early winter before the first frost. Keep them watered not drenched and leave them alone for the first year, when the second crop matures you can harvest and they will keep coming back.

I live in Utah and it is too cold here to plant them outside. I have grown several indoors. I put them out in the summer and in a very bright room with indirect sunlight in the winter. They have to be trimmed, but bloom for quite a while inside. That's what I intend to do with these.

I live in Massachusetts. The first year I grow them in a pot inside. The next spring I plant them outside and they do great! Once they are in the ground they are very hearty. This past winter they were completely buried in the snow. After the snow melted away they just bounced back up as if nothing happened.

Go for it, I am sure the season will be long enough. Besides, what will not planting them yield? :)

They should grow great there. Like others have said, you will need full sun (at least 6 hours per day,) for bloom.

I grow the. In pa. Planted them in late May ,cool nights kept them from growing ,now they are moving .I think if you have a spot that gets some shade during the late afternoon they will take the heat

I wouldn't wait too much longer if you want to enjoy them for the summer. Mine are about 2-3 inches now and it takes 3-4 weeks for them to start coming up. I start mine in a raised garden bed then transplant them. I was sad the ones I planted last summer didn't come back. Maybe because of the harsh winter we had in NC. I lost other perennials as well. These are beautiful plants. Last year I planted them really late because I ordered them late. They still came up.

No as soon as you put them in the soil, you should water them or make sure the soil is wet when you root them.

Here in Florida I plant them in the spring and then they are harvested in the fall or winter. They die down and then come back up.

I planted these strawberries in August here in South Florida, but that is not necessarily a good time to plant them because of the extreme heat here in South Florida. Some of my plants died. I would recommend they be planted around this time or spring to get a good root system. Because I lost some of my plants I did not cut off the runners because you can transplant them. They are growing fine now and are just starting to produce strawberries. I started using the Garden Tone for Herbs and Vegetables once a month and this has helped my strawberries grow. I grow them in a raised garden and use organic cow manure and top soil. I also work in a small amount of Lambert potting soil as crazy as this sounds it has worked for me. If you are in a hot climate I would recommend you start them as soon as you have them shipped. I hope this helps you. I learned from trial and error. If I get a good crop I am planning on ordering some more of these strawberries for another raised garden that I have just built.

Hello. I planted them in potting soil from the home depot, About a half inch deep. But It should be noted that i didn't receive the correct seeds from the seller, and I have no idea what the plant i have is.

If you don't have a true winter I would think anytime is a good time! I always plant late and harvest late here in Oklahoma as well.

I have a friend who grew them in Ohio and they grew well. They are in a regular package with plenty of seeds to start out with. They are a cousin to the morning glory so they go away in the winter totally so collect seed in the fall to reseed in the spring. They reseed the area well and replanting is sometimes not necessary.

it depends what you are planning to plant... everything should be written on the packages with seeds... I live in Texas and I planted some herbs in December-Jan...
