When to plant salad burnet
Sow salad burnet from seed in spring or fall, or plant divisions, in a full-sun spot in average soil (Illinois). It is a perennial that tolerates dry soil once established but reseeds freely; remove flowers to keep new foliage coming and divide every 3 to 4 years.
Salad Burnet 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.
