I started this post weeks ago -- in mid-February! -- when snow still covered the ground, and winter still had a grip on us. I had ordered seeds, and the buds had begun to get fat.

We had plans to winter sow poppy seeds, but the snow was still so deep.

My seeds arrived!
| Queen Lime Red Zinnias, Spotted Bee Balm, Colocha Chocolate Green Coleus, and a free packet of Pink Fang Tomato all from Baker Heirloom Seeds (rareseeds.com). |
And slowly, the snow melted...

...and finally we got the first shoots and flowers!
| Crocuses! April 1, 2026, no joke! |
I guess it's too late to "winter" sow the poppies!
