You can plant it now and it'll get a good root system on it. In your area, it might bloom very, very late in the fall, if you don't get a freeze. I have one and have given many seedlings away. It doesn't take much to get them to the bloom stage and the seedlings grow quickly. The blooms only last for a day and then they produce 5 or so seeds per pod. They are extremely prolific reseeders in my flower bed. The seedlings are very easy to pull up, tho. Give it lots of room as it can get about 3' wide and about 3' tall.
