Terese, I'm sure you will. I was counting on more than 50%. (listen to me...like I'm an old hand at this. it's only my second year). I'm not sure what my percentage was last year. I was a little disappointed until I realized that if any more had germinated I never would have gotten them all planted LOL. I think I had about 80 containers last year. This year I have 144. And another 100+ in the house. Outside I have germ. in 84 plus a couple I haven't documented, so I'm already over my 50% target. I think it's going much better than last year, but it might just seem like it because I have more containers.

I have one tub of 24 with all annuals, and 20 have germ. already. That's cool, because I'm counting on them for color.

Whatever happens, don't get discouraged. These plants are almost free $-wise and almost free work-wise, too. Keep that in mind. Some of the failures will be seeds that are not viable. Nothing you can do.

Here's some of mine. can't identify because I just picked random shots. the upper left is one of the Rubbermaid containers.
