Can this variety be planted before the last frosts in a warm climate, such as Zone 9?

The asparagus plants are not planted very deep. They can be safely planted before the last frost if the temperature doesn't drop below 28F for short periods. Prolonged temperatures (several days below 30F) may be damaging.

These are reusable. It probably won't produce in the frost -- not many plants do. You'll be ready to use this once your plant is close to flowering.

Depends on the climate where you live if you get frost or freezing temperatures don't plant it in the ground.

Yes, it is hardy for zones 6-9. If you keep it trimmed to 6ft. you will limit your blooms as it matures.

I just purchased this plant myself, but I live in zone 10 and it is advertised as requiring a warm climate. I would check on other websites that give you more detailed general care instructions to find your answer. Check the other sites first before ordering, but my plant from Amazon is very healthy and growing well, and the price was quite good.

It is a tropical plant. So, if you live in an area that is warm all year, you should be able to plant it outside. Unfortunately, I live in zone 6. I have mine potted. It is outside for about 6-8 months and inside the house for the rest.

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

Hi Pattie, you got some great answers from some of our great customers. I really appreciate your question and I also appreciate their answers. You can do a Google search for "what vegetables grow in hardiness zone 4". This will give you some great information. Especially look for a site called VeggieHarvest which has some very helpful charts of planting seasons for the different hardiness zones. Wishing you good gardening.Not all of our seeds will grow well in that zone but enough of them will grow that it will still be a really good investment to buy our seeds pack.

Definetly! Just plan according to your zone climate as far as timing goes! I live in Pacific Northwest were it's cooler snd everything is thriving!

Zone 9 is within the growing zone for this plant (zones 6-9) and this is the zone for Phoenix/Scottsdale. See http://www.missouribotanicalgarden.org/PlantFinder/PlantFinderDetails.aspx?kempercode=q280. I'm in Texas Zone 8 and the plant is happy growing on my fence in a lot of sun. You might want to watch how much sun it will get where you plant it as you are hotter than we are here. Asking the grower is probably your safest bet. Keep in mind it's a perennial and dies back when it gets cold.

Sorry, but I do not know. I am near Albany, NY, where we have cold winters. I bought my plant in late Summer and it grew tremendously. However, we brought it in the house for the first winter to give it a chance to develop a little more before we try leaving it out all year. Once we plant it outside, we plan to plant it near the house on the south facing side to give it the best chance of survival.

Mine were fine in zone 5 out in the open. They are blooming now. If you are concerned, make sure they get some protection with mulch or plant in an area near your house where it is usually warmer.

I'm sorry that I do not know the answer to this question, but surely a local nursery could answer that question for you. We have some cold winters here in North Central Texas, however I do not believe our winters are like what you could have in the Denver area.

Yes you could plant them now or keep them in the fridge until spring. I live in Texas so I will harvest mine soon and leave some in the ground for next year.

Yes. I live in zone 9 myself, and they've done very well. Just had my first bunch of berries. The berries are not the prettiest things, but they are very tasty.

I am in the upstate of SC, zone 7 and we were below 10 degrees several days this winter. I had 1st year kiwi in the ground this past winter. I lost one, the others have come up beautifully.

I do not think so, unless, you have a green house where temps do not get below 41 degrees. This is a tropical plant, loves high humid temps and warm winters. I did purchase the seeds but have not planted them as yet. I will post again on here if I'm successful. I live in the South Texas area of US. For more info go to www.wikipedia.org and enter soursop. Good Luck!
