How soon should I start seeds outside? Now, February 28, or March 7?
It would be nice if the flowers bloom before the weather gets hot.

In a word, no. But you can start certain things now. I have perennials started
in my greenhouse, but it won't be time to move them out till at least March 15,
actually the end of March would be the safest bet. We can get a late, killing
freeze as late as April.

Calendula
stock
snapdragons
sweet peas
lettuce
onion sets can go in
