| We have been having very warm and sunny weather. I am anxious to plant as all the tubers are here and some have some growth. Should I hold my horses or go for it? |

| I would "hold your horses" until danger of frost is past. I am in zone 5 also, and won't plant in the ground until the end of next month, since we usually have frost then. It has been a strange spring though, so it is anyone's guess. |

Things you can plant now: Generally the following plants CAN be planted NOW: All Nursery stock including: Perennials including: Many vegetables like onions, cabbage and lettuce (but not tomatoes and peppers) Many herbs Annuals like pansies I am in Zone 5b. My giant colocasia and alocasia tubers are doing well in pots though |
