Great ideas, you all. I need to go look for seeds. Our farm store usually has packs on sale for 10 for a dollar, will see if they have any of these.
Anyone ever do pansys. I love pansys. Usually buy some every year, this year want to just try seeds.

! save my annual seeds every year to start for the next and save perennial seeds too for planting in other areas. Daisy seeds take a while to sprout and I find covering them with black plastic or several layers of newspaper helps at first. Other annuals like zinnias, nasturtiums, petunias, etc. are easy to grow. Soak morning glory seeds til they swell before planting,and don't invest in special seed pots, just use your own soup cans, yogurt cups whatever with holes poked in the bottom. You don't need special grow lights either just a sunny warm spot and even under a table lamp. I have already started my yellow grape tomatoes and trying again to grow lupine.

Hand raised up here in Maine. Petunia's take forever as do geraniums but worth the time and energy if you price them at the garden centers.

Not anymore. Pretty much everything I have are perennials.

CarrieAnne

I really dont know, that would be neat to try!

Sure. Amaryllis are very easy and goof proof pm your add and i'll send you some. they are perennials and multiply from the bulbs also. same with agapanthus.

I've had really good luck with Zinnias. But I plant them in pots and the last two years I have had them grow to almost 6 feet tall!

None of my tomatoes grow from seed- the ants always get them. However, everything else grows OK.
