When to plant jacob's ladder

Jacob's ladder is a spring-blooming native perennial (NC State lists bloom in spring into summer) with loose clusters of light blue flowers over fern-like foliage. Plant or divide in spring or fall in moist, shaded soil.

Jacob's Ladder is timed by season rather than your frost dates, so the planting calendar does not generate ZIP-specific dates for it. Check the cited sources below to fine-tune for your area.
