That is a problem, isn't it? Are you sprouting these seeds where you want them to end up in the garden? Are you making new beds where these are germinating? Seems like hard work to me, lol.

This is the first time I'm not trying to start a brand new bed, and what a nice relief! My newest areas were planted fairly heavily last fall, and a lot seems to have made it. Peony Bartzella, penstemon Rocky Mountain Blue, Veronica austriaca, Dracocephalum, pink Dictamnus -but not the baby Alba :-(, many, many TBI's, some Clematis and all the usual hardies are appearing. Platys, Mums, Salvia Azureum and a few others are still sleeping. But, big surprise, a couple of last year's Delphiniums made it. It looks like 1 D elatum and 1 D Bellamosum, very cool.
That I did not expect. They're not thought of as reliable around here.

There's plenty of room in my kitchen window now, and DH is out tonight. So off I go to get some planting done. Later...
