2014 winter sowing update

Hi all, this was my first year for winter sowing and it was a great success for me. I did have a few jugs that did not sprout and I just put them aside, as advised, and kept them watered. Now there are a few that have sprouts. Glad I did not dump them!!

I think one of my biggest successes were the poppies. Lots of them are blooming now. Bee Balm did great, as well as the flax and rudbeckia I had volunteer petunias come back. They are doing fabulous!! I may purchase seeds and winter sow them as well.

I had problems with hollyhocks, delphiniums and coneflowers. It may have been old seed, just not sure.

If I figure out how to post pictures, I will put some up. I am really proud.

Already thinking ahead to next season, I have lots of garden space to fill :)

Anyone want to share their successes or failures?

Diane
