I ordered and received strawflower seeds from Fla. Can I plant now, or wait 'till Spring? Zone #5

Wait until spring. Strawflowers are annuals, and are such a nice addition to the garden. They bring a bit of summer inside when the garden is done.

Then if you plan to keep them pick them before the flower opens up much and hang them upside down to dry. The open a lot after cutting and strawflowers can make a real mess is they are too far open.
