Our normal frost free date is about April 15, but last year it was early March. and it looks like this might be the same this year with the warmer than normal predictions.

Thanks!

And sweet potatoes? Do you ship them? And when do you suggest I order? I am completely new to sweet potatoes in Oklahoma. I have grown them in Indiana and Florida, but not here.

PS Unlike the rest of Oklahoma I usually only need to water 3 or 4 times a year. Mostly due to all the work I put into the soil. Even last year in the middle of the drought I seldom needed to water. Of course I can if needed though. What variety do you recommend? OOPS Sory Gary I see you already answered what varieties! My bad.
