Some good answers already, but some unanswered questions yet...
Celosia... Amaranth sp?
May bloom now, and spend the rest of the growing period setting viable seed... And depending on the rainfall.... May rebloom.
As a hot weather annual, I wouldn't expect the plants to continue growing after the temps drop near frost.
Regarding "bank"...
Do you mean next to street?
Or where you save your $?
Regarding sowing indoors...
Strictly something we do for especial long season plants that we want to get a jump on the season with.
Like tomatoes and eggplant.
Although... My season is long enough that I sow my tomato seed outside after danger of frost... And the tomatoes produce... And there will still be growing season left after they've pretty much played out.
Starting indoors is for people with short seasons...i have still alot to learn about preparing for winter....here there is a common site in banks$ 40\40\120 centimeters containers with hydroponic plants in them.....they always look pathetic.think of the temperture of the water inside a container at night when people have left the bank.in winter....start-up-an under container heater to preserve normal warmth.how about like in aquariums a small device to heat the water?
35 degrees F? Or C?
You froze... Around here.. I've got to put on a winter coat every time I go indoors... Everybody is running those air conditioners, and my body is adapted to the triple digit heat (Fahrenheit)...
People start seeds indoors when spring is like 6 weeks away... So... You wouldn't want to start seeds in the autumn.
