Starting seeds in the summer

Hi,
Brand new here so please excuse any common sense questions I may have.
We finally bought our first home this past May. I spent April and May getting my vegetable garden up and running. I started them from seen indoors and have had great results.
Now, Im looking around our blank canvas of a yard and want to plant perennials from seed. Cant afford to do it any other way! I prefer to plant them in peat pots instead of straight into the ground.
My questions are
# 1 ~ Where is the best place to put them? I have the room to put them outside in the garden shed or downstairs in our basement.
#2 ~ Do they need direct sunlight to sprout? or should I keep them out of the direct sunlight? If I keep them in the shed, I can move them in and out.
Here are some of the seeds I already have
Everlasting Pea

Virginia bluebells
Pampas grass (the pink feathery looking ones)
Primrose
Balloonflower
Foxglove
Lavendar

Or is it too late to start now and plant before fall?
Any help is appreciated!
