When to plant flowers outdoors?

Answer 1

The temperature of the soil or ground must be in the 50 degree range. This means depending on where you live you must not be in danger of any more frosts. Still I like to wait until the day time highs are in the 70 degree range and the low temperature at night doesn't fall below 50 degrees. Actually when it's raining is the best time to plant your flowers into the ground. It isn't too pleasant being out in the rain but the soil you'll be planting the flowers in will be moist and that's the best soil type to have when planting the flowers.

Answer 2

The best time of day to water your garden is early morning. It is generally cooler and allows the plant to absorb water before it evaporates. As the temperature begins to rise, water begins to evaporate and molds are less likely to develop and hurt the plants.

Answer 3

Different flowers can be planted outdoors at different times. It depends on the climate in the area where you live and on the particular flowering plant. For example, pansies don't like hot weather and are planted in the spring and early fall in areas that have four seasons. They'll bloom all winter in Florida, so they're usually planted in late fall. Daisies and Black-eyed susans like heat and sunshine, so they can be planted in the spring to become established in the ground for blooming in mid-summer. Many spring flowering bulb plants (tulips, daffodils, hyacinths) need that chill of winter soil to produce flowers in the spring, so the bulbs are planted in the late fall before the soil freezes.

Answer 4

The best time to plant flowers outdoors is typically in the spring after the last frost date for your region. This allows the flowers to establish their root systems before the heat of summer. Be sure to check specific recommendations for the types of flowers you plan to plant, as some may have different optimal planting times.
