To dig in the dirt.
I started my first batch of seeds in early February. I’m growing a couple of trickier things that I knew would take some additional time to grow and become established, all with cut flowers in mind. (That goes without saying!) Eucalyptus and yarrow are the two biggies that need a little extra time and care to grow big. They were started, along with lots of snapdragons, globe amaranth, and craspedia. A second batch of seeds will follow in a couple weeks including tomatoes, coleus, and some other flowers that missed round one.
Sad news: my dahlia seeds that I collected last fall have failed to grow. Another attempt will have to be made at the end of this growing season.
Speaking of dahlias: I panic-pulled them out of storage (a cardboard box in the garage) because I checked on them and feared they were starting to become dehydrated. I washed the dirt from the clumps and then spent an afternoon splitting them so each cutting had a “body, neck, and eye.” If even half of the tubers (the potato-looking things) that are sitting in tubs in the sunroom are viable, I’m going to be in some big trouble. Last year, I think I planted around 15 dahlia plants. I’m guessing I’ll end up with three times that (at least) which begs the question – what grass/hosta garden should I dig up next to make room for MORE FLOWERS? (Don’t worry; I have an idea.)
Our sunroom is now a greenhouse (which makes me so incredibly happy).
there's no place like gnome. 
Good evening. Love that you are into all this planting,. I hove no room and I work with more things that come up every year. easier for me to do.
I would like to order from you a dog collar for a white golden retrieve full gown size. A little puppy is coming to our grand-daughter next week, female and I would like to give her a new collar.
