Is it too late in the season to plant

Lavendar, feverfew, baby's breath, echinacea? I plan to plant them all close to eachother in a poor but well drained soil. It'd be the "Plugs" rather than seedlings?
Thanks in advance.

I don't think it's too late. Not 100% sure, but you could give it a go. They are all perennials, so should be OK.

Great! Thanks for ur reply .
They will have a good start for next year but will need regular watering.
Never water Lavender,they prefer dry arrid conditions.
Lavender plants like lots of sun, and sandy well drained soil. Soil pH should be balanced and in the range of 6.5 to 7.5. Lavender plants in a garden should be panted so that they receive lots of sun light, and plenty of air circulation. Humidity and excess moisture is extremely bad for lavender and will result in rot and death of the plant. It is generally not necessary to fertilize lavender plants. A bit of compost used as a mulch around the base of the plant is usually enough to produce healthy growth. Plants should be watered only when the soil is dry. Plants should be pruned each fall by about 1/3. This will result in healthier, fuller plants and more blooms.
