Thanks, will do! If I have any success at all with doing winter sowing, I’ll post an update when the time comes.
Early last February, I did a first time trial run at this thing called “winter sowing”.
I grew annual poppies for the first time this way.
I prepared 2 pots of soil, broadcast seeded them, covered lightly with vermiculite, did a light watering, and placed the 2 large pots on a top shelf in the garage. Come spring, I put them outside, and had excellent germination.
Can’t really be sure that same great germination wouldn’t have been exactly the same had I sowed the seeds in spring.

Iceberg wedge, clue cheese and bacon......what could possibly go wrong?
The iceberg wedge salad earliest printed recipe appeared in a 1916 cookbook. By the 1920s, restaurants began serving versions of the salad, and in the 1950s, it became a steakhouse staple, made with iceberg lettuce, blue cheese dressing, and bacon.
One famous restaurant family, the Tuccis, claims their grandfather, Oscar, created a version in the 1930s at a legendary restaurant called Delmonico’s, later renamed “Oscar’s Wedge” in 1955.
Pollard snow...we had about 4” here in the KC area. Radar says you should be enjoying some rain or snow right now! (Green so maybe rain?)
Nice pictures of beautiful flowers in your California December! (No jealousy! Happy for you!)
