What zone are these best for and when should they be planted?

We planted in mid April in zone 5. Some came, but had unusually hard rains and a cool spring so I am unable to give you a good answer. I would rebuy.

We are in zone 3 and planted in July however we could have planted in April. We spread the whole bag with a thin layer of potting soil and pressed the surface by simply walking on it. Then we have a sprinkler in our yard that hits this spot daily and the resulting flowers came over two months, very pretty, colorful and attracted butterflies.

Hey Allison, I live in Beaumont, Texas so am somewhat familiar with your climate. Plant seeds in the spring, probably around April. It's a little cooler where you live. I plan to sow my seeds in March. Good luck.

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.

From what I understand, zones 7-10. I do believe that they do better w/a Winter rest period. We've had a VERY cold, bitter Winter in North Georgia. The leaves are gone and I'm hoping the plants will come back.

We are in Ohio mostly Zone 5, but unless your growing season is short - these should do fine in zone 4. I even have watermelons and pumpkins right now. We can also start our seeds in our greenhouse as of this past spring so that helps.

I am unsure as I bought them for my granddaughters whose parents have a lakeside home and it has been too cold to plant as yet. They are hoping around Easter. Let me know how yours do if you buy.

I planted mine in a sandy mixture and they are doing great and have several blooms on them already, they are outside in an area that gets 6-8 hours of sun.

i live in zone 6 and leave them out all year. You might have to mulch them heavy or bring them in. Really can't say for sure for zone 5

Hi Carrie :) I live in the Lancaster are of PA...we are about what I would call zone 5.5 :) They grew perfectly well...and they even sprouted in the dead of winter in my greenhouse ( which is kind of chilly in December). Go for it :)

i got mine & planted in the fall, next spring, only 2 came up. i read that the best time to plant is in the spring. probably a 25 foot row would be good.

The best time to plant this seed is when temperatures are between 60-80 degrees, in late spring or early fall. It is difficult to keep newly seeded areas moist enough during the high heat of summer.

I don't know. We live in South Carolina and plant them in the spring and save the seeds from the flowers for spring replanting. My guess in warm climates that will not get a hard freeze they might do OK

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.

Our temps here in Mo are still swinging dramatically. 70s one day, 50s the next and night temps still dipping in the upper 30s and 40s -if I would order them now I'd go the pot route. If you live in the South and winter temps don't go below 50, I'd put right in the ground. I planted mine in large (very large) decoratine pots and moved into the garage over winter -our winter temps run in the minus temps and only the strongest survive. My friends who had these plants live in the deep South so I assumed they prefer and thrive with the warmer temps dspite their claim that they are Northern hardy Our temps here in Mo are still swinging dramatically. 70s one day, 50s the next and night temps still dipping in the upper 30s and 40s -if I would order them now I'd go the pot route.

I live in eastern VA, along the coast, and I have mine planted in pots and bring them in for the winter. I would suggest you wait till late APR MAY time to order. They come well packaged and in good condition.

I would plant in th spring, and they can survive a freeze, best in zones 2-7

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.
