I'll pretty well try anything. Some earlier and any that are tender, later. You can always get a surprise. And aren't they nice.
It was fairly warm yesterday so went and sprinkled annual poppies and larkspur on the snow. That is the extent of my winter sowing. I do plant carrot, spinach and lettuce seed before freezeup. Gives them an early start in the spring.
