Irma check your local cooperative extension for planting guides. Usually when frost is gone and the ground has warmed a bit you can plant. Enjoy your flowers.
Glads are so beautiful, Irma. I love mine. We planted ours in the fall and fed them bone meal as long as the growing season lasted. Then the next spring they came up and bloomed well. We used mulch (cypress or cedar to prevent attracting termites) to help protect them in winter and hold moisture in summer. Hope this helps and good luck with them!
