Hi I'm not a new gardener but I'm new at postings on line. I planted some poppies in the milk jugs last fall and put them out for the winter.
I've read that to direct sow the poppies you should sprinkle them on top of the snow. I did that last weekend. What a dilemma I couldn't decide if I wanted to sprinkle the seeds on the snow because if I did I would have to walk in the snow and that would have messed up the beautiful snow in the back yard. Foot prints or Poppies?!?!?!
So far I have started under lights in the basement the following fig leaf holly hock, Amaranthus (love lies bleeding), bachelor buttons, gomphrena, stock, status, Hungarian 4:00, Easter egg eggplant, Red bell peppers, Tomatoes (enchantment) Eggplant, Birdhouse gourds, Penguin gourds, Castor beans. I have started to rehydrate the Cana bulbs and Elephant ears.
It should start to turn green in the basement in about a week or so.
