Garden Plans > 2025: Winter sowing

About this Garden Plan

Perennial flowers that are excellent for winter sowing. The natural winter dormancy cycle of perennials sets them up to be ideal winter sowing seeds. These are more likely to require cold stratification to germinate and grow. You should work with perennials that are suited to your location and hardiness zone because those are the ones that can survive winter as a mature plant.
