Last week, I sowed some additional seeds in my little milk-jug winter-sowing containers. I sowed:

• Penstemon smallii (from a generous trade with a local GardenWeb-er)
• Blue-eyed grass (Sisyrinchium montanum, also from a GW trade)
• Iceland poppies (seeds from a neighbor)

Today, I checked the containers, and the Alyssum have begun sprouting. Here’s a photo of my little jug farm. I put them under the swing so they could get shelter from the midday sun but still have morning and evening light. But then again, I may want to move them, because they won’t get any rain in them this way.
