I love lavender season!!!!

Lavender season is here!

February is the start of indoor seed starting for zone 7! It’s also a great month to do winter sowing of ALL seed varieties. More to come on this down the road. Take this time to continue to make your plan and make the appropriate appointments with landscape professionals…spring is a busy time and waiting until March to call your sprinkler guy is risky!

Also, don’t be fooled by this weather. It’s fake spring and second winter will be back next week. Take a nice walk and soak up the sunny moments!

The days are getting longer, can you feel it?

Right now, you’re probably buying seed and wondering what flowers might be easy to start from seed…look no further. These 5 flowers are easy to start and flourish starting as seed indoors, in winter sowing containers, or directly outdoors in the garden. Sunflowers should be started directly outdoors after the last frost. Don’t bother starting them inside. They’ll be just fine. The rest of these are great to get a jump on and generally deliver, even for a novice seed starter. Additionally, there are so many colors and textures of these seeds. You’ll have a blast choosing a color scheme. Happy seed dreaming!

Happy New Year! Going to continue to post and evolve the checklists this year to continue to help you on your gardening journey! If you got a calendar, you will have these checklists all in one place! There are less than 10 available at all places! Get it before it’s gone! I only have 3 in my hot little hand left! Hugs.

There’s really not a ton for you to do other than dream, plan, and order seeds! You’ll want to have your seeds in time to start them! Stay tuned for workshop offerings at Edwards!
