Juliarugula Yes, I have winter sown a lot of seeds in the past, but with a much smaller garden now I kind of let it go. I am going to try just a few this year of the trickier ones, like some of the cool season perennials. And I only need or want a few plants of each, just enough for some household vases.... so if I can get 3-6 seedlings of them going then that will save a lot from shopping for growing perennial plants. If I could only constrain myself to those number of plants gardening would be so much easier, LOL. My beds seem to keep being taken over with whole seed envelopes of cosmos, phlox, zinnias, etc.
