Once soil temperatures increase in spring, it is always exciting to see new growth from your perennial plants. The exact timing of emergence can vary quite a bit depending on factors such as the plant species, local climate conditions, and geographic region.
Some native perennial plants may emerge earlier than others, depending on their specific adaptations and environmental cues. It is not unusual for some plant species to emerge as late as May or even June in some areas. A few of the species that generally emerge later include milkweeds, Black Eyed Susan, Joe Pye Weed, Grayleaf Goldenrod, and some varieties of Asters.
