folliage coarse and ferry, like borageWhen you are certain that your seeds are dry the next thing is to place each variety into its' own jar with a tightly sealed lid and put them in the fridge till you are ready to sow them. Remember that I mentioned to you that the ultimate time to sow the seeds is when you have a solid snow cover. That way the seeds will continue their chill process and you will be able to see where they have gone. When sowing throw the seeds into the air with a sideways sweep of your hand, scattering the seeds both far and near you. Now here is the true kicker. you sow these seeds in rills according to their colours, putting the whites furthest back the red-oranges in front of them . Against the oranges you want to locate the palest of the blue mauves, the flax seeds, in front of them. Sew the centaurea ,Corn flowers, in front of the flax . Because they are the most delicate, the delphiniums in front of them. Sew the echium in patches amongst the poppies in a large triangle distributed throughout the whole garden. It will be smashing!!! If you like please send me the plan of your house and property and I shall happily mark in the zones for you.
