DawnLL,

Petunias: Do you have grow lights indoors? If so I would start the petunias by the end of Feb. They will need to be transplanted in about 4 weeks, so you will have to have room to accommodate that. They will be blooming in April/May and be pretty big. I fertilize with diluted fish fert once a week.

Silver falls: I would start Mid Feb. It is slow to grow, but once the hot days arrive they will take off.

Snaps, Mid March

If you start them earlier, they will be bigger for planting out
Here's a pic of silver falls (they don't like it too cool & wet. Grow better in warm humid conditions.
