Is It Too Late To Plant Perennial And Annual Flower Seeds?

Question

We moved into a new house in December. Landscaping took a backseat to being ill for months. Will I see any results if I plant Zinnia, Black Eyed Susan, and Giant Columbine now, or should I just forget this year and wait for next spring?

Answer 1

I would wait until Spring. Summer is a bad time to plant any new plantings.

There are some thing that you can plant in Autumn in preparation for next year, though.
