Okay, I'm starting to get tired now...I'm sowing, but my seed box isn't getting any smaller. Doesn't help that there were some seeds I knew I had and cannot find-- so I go online and order replacements...and then other things just to "pad out" the order (lol). This behavior is going to get me in big trouble!
Here's what I put out yesterday. I stopped because I ran out of containers:
Thalictrum pubescens (trade)
Vegetable-Beetroot Chioggia
Carnation trailing cary Swiss (5 packs)
Carnation Grenadin Formula Mix
Carnation Stokes Dble Rainbow Blend

CarnationEnfant de Nice Blend
Anagallis "Poor Man's Weatherglass"
Night Phlox Zaluzianskya (2 packs)
Scabiosa atropurpurea "Oxford Blue"
Vegetable-Radish "Champion"
Vegetable-Radish "China Rose, Scarlet China"
Meadow Rue (trade)
Cimicifuga -Acetea racemosa "Black Cohosh" (trade)
Gas Plant-Dictamnus albus "Purpureus"
Petunia-Double Cascade Burgundy
Bells of Ireland-Moluccella laevis
Herb-Dill "Aneth Boquet"
Petunia-Double Cascade Blue
Petunia-Aladdin Nautical Mix
Nemophila insignis "Baby Blue Eyes
Orlaya grandiflora (2 packs)
Cosmos sulphureus "Bright Lights"
Poppies somniferum- variety mixed

(And every time I put more containers outside, I see what's already out there and think, "how am I going to get all these in the ground and clean up all this plastic????)

Linda

My seed box is nearly empty. WOOHOO!

I sowed all my annuals today. We've got one day in the 10 day forecast where it might frost, and I know others will come, but I can move them inside if I have to.

Cherry Brandy Rudbeckia got sown today.
Glomphera White
Vinca - red and pink that I collected from my plants
Red Salvia and Yvonne's salvia. Same plant I think, but they'll be spaced far away from each other
some ornamental grasses
gloriosa daisy
garidilla - arizona sun, yellow, and burgundy
and a few more things I guess since that doesn't add up to 19. LOL

this is a great post for me! I can see what others in my zone are still WSing.

thanks so much!

I have 2 more containers today and can't choose what to sow! I guess I will just have to pick something :)

Not much... just getting over the worse case of stomach flue I've ever had. Yesterday I started to feel better so I sowed a jug of Beefsteak maters for my friend. HA! She is trying for the first time to grow some in peat pots indoors... she might need the ones I started for her.... bless her heart!

Am not sowing much now. Will direct sow some seeds such as cleome today and will WS balsam impatiens but other than that it is other things in the garden that take over. With the volume I tend to start it is watering and planting out that will move up on my to do list from now on. Weather is getting steadily warmer so need to finish cleaning up my garden and have plenty of stuff hardy enough such as primulas, columbines etc to be planted out.
I do nto particularly like to keep my seedbox full so try to empty it as much as I can by the WS season end. Many seeds will be just fine, but some really do not like to be stored and those I usually want to the most...

salad blend seed mixture
yellow and wht onion sets.
