Q.Primroses and lettuce
I am in Dusseldorf, Germany. A friend gave me some primroses. Can I plant them outside now or must I wait for warmer weather? I don’t expect a freeze.
Also, I want to plant lettuce seeds. When can I safely do this?
I believe this is Hardiness Zone 8b. The climate is very similar to the Pacific Northwest.
Thank you very much for your help.
Sincerely,

As long as you are in the clear for a freeze then it would be safe to plant both of these. Lettuce can handle low temperatures, but a freeze will kill off a young seedling.
