Seedlings

So it might be a little early, but the snow is off the deck and that means it's time to start the seeds. I started some cosmos, marigolds, asters, zinnias, petunias, cilantro, basil, two varieties of cukes, zucchini, and musk melons. I also am trying some of the edelweiss seeds Ossian brought home from Switzerland last summer. We'll see how that goes! I'd love to have a little rock garden for them, if I can get them started successfully.

I also started some spinach, chard, and lettuces in the garden itself. It's really cold, so I'm not sure if this is too early--but I think these are cold tolerant plants, and I know that they tend to bolt when it gets hot, so hopefully they'll be okay.
