I came back to this thread because it has some beautiful photos and good info.
Juli, When you plant your seed outside, do you sow them in a seed starting mix or just in your soil?
Do you cover them with something to prevent the rain from washing them away?( I left some seeds in the seed starting trays outside on a table under my huge old Oak tree one fall day, it rained!!! rained and rained!! I lost every seed that was in the trays 72 x 4. I only found about 20 on the ground, the rest vanished!)
How deep do you plant?
I think if you chill the seeds before planting, the seeds would try to come up in late fall and then die. I would think this is why you don't chill?? I have read on other sites that people collect their seeds and plant them all in the same day.I also have read that some in Southern states chill theirs before planting.
Do you leave the seedlings in this bed until they bloom??
I'm sure I'll think of something else, so please be patient. Thanks Mona
