Spring. They will over winter in some areas and are sold in the fall for fall planting. I don't know your zone, but it might be worth trying, I'd mulch them well after planting as a fall tuber. I'm in Alaska & only plant them in the spring.

I would say as long as the ground isn't frozen, then you can plant them. I'm zone 5a (new york) and I'll probably be planting mine around mid-april.

Think potatoes/onions. These are tubers and are designed to stay viable and dormant until spring. I'd order them two weeks before last frost and stick them in the ground when you have a chance.

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.

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.

Go ahead and plant it. You are probably warm enough for it to survive the winter. If there is going to be a cold snap I would cover it. We live in RI and bring it in during the winter.

It depends on what part of the contry you are in. I plant mine in spring after danger of frost.

I asked my Mom who is the plant aficionado. She said to plant them in the Spring and they will flower around the end of June.

I would wait until there are no more snow storms. I live in Texas and my plants have weathered the cold spells with below freezing temps, but our cold spells don't last long. Hope spring comes soon for you guys!!! I can imagine you are ready for it.

After the last frost has long past. I'll order mine in April or May. Depending also where you live.

Don't see why not. However, not sure because I just planted mine in North West Arkansas 4 weeks ago. Instructions mention that they come as late as June and you may not have any the first season. I don't have any yet. I would think June in Arkansas is April in Florida. Order now and plan on next April. We can always hope to be lucky this year.

Zone 10 is best to grow Tumeric. You still can plant in the pot at zone 7, but you must bring inside when is below 30F

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.

Depends in where you live, mid April is probably the best time. But I kept mine in a 10" pot on the patio for six months before planting it in the ground. Located in So. Calif.

I live in southern Ohio and the plants does well here. It dies back in the fall but comes back in the summer. They like plenty of sunshine.

When you don't have any more cold/frost at night. Here in Ct., I put my seedlings in end of April, beginning of May. It's a good head start on what you put in your garden.

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 :)

it depends on where you live and what part of the country it is. I live in Oklahoma so my trees have to be kept in pots. They can't handle the winters here. In southern texas or any gulf region it is best to plant in the fall. When heat is not as intense. Early spring also.

I am waiting til Spring to plant, I have no idea. If you have have high winds and very cold winters I would put in sheltered environment or greenhouse.

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.
