Limey Lisa -

I've WSed all of those with great success. Last summer (2002), the winter-sown coneflowers actually bloomed - wasn't expecting that. Poppies work really well; this winter I plan to do a lot more varieties. And the zinnias work great too - the first year, I sowed them at the end of February; they came up fast and grew well (2002 winter was a mild one, though). This year, I WSed the zinnias at the end of March; much colder this past winter/spring, and they did just as well.

Below is a pic of the 2002 WSed coneflowers.
