Starting with Seeds: Pansy
Starting pansies from seeds is an excellent choice in January. Beginners will enjoy the lower temperature requirements, and the plants are usually moved outdoors, away from the indoors growing area making room for the fast growing summer annuals. Pansies make beautiful additions to the home landscape. Some have blotches ("faces") and they come in many different colors. Since they will withstand mild frost they are excellent companions to spring flowering bulbs. Contrary to common belief pansies are fairly easy to grow from seed, even for inexperienced growers. Lean the truths and myths about these early spring jewels.

Cool-season annuals provide early color in a spring garden—and an opportunity for you to start planting when you just can't wait any longer. And speaking of waiting—gardeners usually can't wait until the last frost to begin planting. Fortunately, there are some ways to plant crops early, even if there is still a chill in the air.

After Last Chance of Frost?
Transfer outdoors after last chance of frost. If you have ever grown plants from seed you will surely have heard this expression. It sounds like great advice, but unfortunately this particular statement has become so standard; almost mandatory; to the point where it has completely lost its meaning, and even starts to mislead gardeners. Since catalogues are now flooding the mail boxes, now would be a good time to set the record straight. In the process learn about the optimal soil temperatures for growing caladium bulbs, and how soil and air temperatures are related in spring and fall.

Early Bloomers in a New Land
After three weeks of a constantly spinning turnstile here, at the inn, my wife and I finally got away from the mountains and the winter for a couple days, heading for the coast and Point Reyes National Seashore. Imagine our surprise, discovering verdant slopes tumbling into the blue Pacific Ocean, full of life as well as the promise of life. Gray Whales were spouting off-shore, a variety of birds soared and zoomed and fluttered and hovered, a Bobcat hunkered down in the tall grass as we hiked by, Tule Elk foraged here and there, and an assortment of wildflowers were already in bloom.
