I like to plant out snapdragons and pansies and violets. In the rare year that I buy tulips, I put them in the fridge and plant them out between Christmas and New Years. There are always camillias to watch.
This winter, I plan to wintersow a bit and start some annuals inside. Hope to have my sunroom full of plants to fuss over.
In the summer, I ignore a lot of housework. I try to catch up in the colder weather.
