Starting My Zinnias And Marigolds Indoors

Honey Bee
I'm not really back from break, but I'm just so excited that I am now starting a few of my blooms indoors for this season's veggie garden. I love to mix blooms with vegetables, because they attract bees, which in return pollinate my vegetable blossoms giving me a much better yield of crops.
I've just started "candy cane mix" Zinnia and "Tiger's eye" Marigold in peat pots. I'm so happy because they've all come out. I'll have 32 of each.
Within the next few months I'll be busy starting Alyssum, Italian basil, and parsley in pots. I'm so looking forward to summer in the garden again.
