The Coeur d'Alene Coop
I'm all caught up for what I can sow indoors right now (lots of alliums)...so it's time for a bit of winter sowing! Today's batch includes flowers that require cold stratification to germinate, making them perfect candidates for winter sowing. Poppies, echinacea, chamomile, hyssop, columbine, and snapdragons are snug in their jugs, and sitting in the garden waiting for their time to shine. Easy, peasy. #wintersowing #coldstratification #wintersownflowers#thecoeurdalenecoop ... See MoreSee Less
