too late to plant moonflower seeds?

14 years ago

Hi,

My seeds were on backorder for a long time, and now I've finally got them, but I think it's too late. Is it too late to plant moonflower seeds? I'm in western NC and I want to give some to my parents in northern VA (both zone 5b).

Also, should I plant them in a pot first then move them outside?

I wouldn't plant all the seeds, but I can't see any harm in planting a few seeds. I have new plants coming up all over the place from this years seed pods that have popped open. I am in zone 7. I don't know if that makes a difference.
