[quote="CraigCoGardens"] My understanding is that potatoes are not really "frost proof". Old timers around here said to plant out when the dogwood trees are blooming.
that seems very late. My dogwoods are just coming into full bloom, my potatoes were planted 3-4 weeks ago and all have greens showing a few inches now (in their depressions that I will fill later.) and I've often read plant them St Patricks Day. Which is certainly during 'frost' season.
