Planting cold tolerant flowers on our flower farm!

Many people think that it is still too cold to be planting or starting seeds in my zone (5b/6a), however, there are lots of plants and flowers that can tolerate frosts and even harder freezes with a little bit of protection! Starting early means we get flowers earlier, too! Today in March, we are getting ready to plant out some of our more cold-tolerant flowers! These have been hardening off for a couple of weeks and are ready to go into the ground! The ones we are planting today include ranunculus, violas, stock, and lettuce! Next week, we will be planting our sweet peas and getting our lisianthus, foxglove, bells of ireland, snapdragons, and more hardened off and ready to plant 6 weeks before last frost! Come along with us for a day on the farm: we will tour the greenhouse and also chat about why we start everything from seed instead of buying in plants! What are you getting ready to plant this week?
