That’s pretty accurate. Our rule of thumb for planting (or at least moving outside) any warm weather plants has been ~ mid May.

A few years ago about this time of year, I was at "Home Depot" in the plant section. It was about 70F. Went to check out and there was a couple in front of me with a flat bed full of flowers. The woman was saying, "I don't see why everyone says winters here are bad!! It's gorgeous out!!"

I asked, "Are you new to Colorado?"

The woman said, "Yes! We just moved from California!!"

I asked if they were planning on planting those flowers into the ground.

"Well, of course silly!!"

I just smiled as the man looked at me with a "Wait, why is he smiling?" look on his face.

Must have been about $400 worth flowers....

Not my fault that neither of them bothered to ask why I asked that. And she was a little snooty as well.

Welcome to Colorado.

Every year we see or hear that from someone, especially on Nextdoor. The ones who have been here long enough know better than to trust these "false Springs". Like clockwork though some will plant something outside during this time of year only to be disappointed when the inevitable snow and cold come back.
