Margaret, I grow them here in Northern Minnesota and I think we have a similar climate to you. I start a few of them inside but mostly I plant them out in the middle of May unless it's a terribly cold spring. Some of them bloom earlier than others, it's just been an experiment to see which ones do the best. I always have to start Gitt's Perfection inside because it takes so long to bloom but it's my favorite so I do it.
