May 15th
It is recommended to wait until after the Frost-Free Date of May 15th to plant a majority of your annuals and vegetables. However, some plants will benefit from waiting even a little longer to make sure the outside temperatures and soil are warm enough. Geraniums, lantana, coleus, and marigolds can all be planted once we reach the frost-free date. However, vinca, chenille, cosmos, and zinnia all like to have nighttime temperatures above 40°F
