Annuals: Anyone "Winter Sowing" Annual Seeds?, 1 by tabasco

Hi, again, everybody--Time For An Update!!! (-:

Found this thread on our Wsowing projects from last year and thought I would bump this up and ask how everyone's wintersowing went? And whether you are doing it again this year?!

Here's my report: Last year my wintersowing went OK, but many of my seedling were drowned out by heavy rains (and poor drainage in my container set up). Now I have a little experience, so I'm trying it again. And the new DG Wintersowing Forum has provided excellent tips, also, to insure success.

Here's a link to my (too ambitious?) Wintersowing 2006 list on my DG diary, if anyone's interested...

I am part way through planting the list--I will wait a while to do many of the annuals and tropical vines.

(I am trying to plant a (super) Butterfly garden from scratch this year-- a big deal for me! But fun.)

So any updates from your Wintersowing projects? Let's hear about!? (-:
