I am kicking myself! I forgot to check the mail box yesterday and of course it was the day my seed order came in! It was really really cold last night, in the single digits, do you think any of the seeds were harmed? I know some of them can take it, but some of the annuals i am worried about. Here are some:
Tomatoes
sunflower
petunia
ornamental pepper'
nigella
portulaca
coleus
basil
pearlwort
kale
candy lily
hibiscus
eucalyptus
hens and chicks

What do you think?

RE: Cold Seeds!

A brief cold period will NOT harm the seed... I keep all my seed in air tight containers in the vegi keeper They seed to have a higher germination rate the 2nd or 3rd year.....
