Default Help w/seed planting climate zones

Hello folks,

While working on using seeds for all my flower gardens this year, I'm
becoming a confused by the packaging instructions on some of these
packages.

I'm in SE Michigan, planting carnations, delphinium, poppies and such.
The seed packs for these varieties say:

"plant directly into outdoor soil and soon as the ground can be
worked".

Then on the little planting zone graphic, it shows proper planting
time for my area in "May-June"). (typically, you're safe from a late
frost after 1st or 2nd week in May here.)

But those instructions are contradictory ... the ground is workable
now (march 29th) and some perennials are already coming up.

But we're a good ways from May.

Advice please?

Thanks much,
rob anderson
