tflabo-- Just about everything in our garden this year was started from seeds-- first time we've tried doing this way. We got a couple of extra tomato plants from the nursery "just in case" we weren't successful, but now we have too many!

We did also get a couple early marigold and alyssum plants. We wanted to put them in while the seed ones were growing to stave off the bugs. My marigolds have caught up, but my alyssum were kind of disappointing.

fid—I live in the DFW TX area. There’s a little asian lady up the block with a small corner patch and she’s got lettuce and some other greens growing nicely even in February where its fairly cold here too. She starts them from seeds in the ground too-—I’m so amazed at folks who have great gardening skills.
