Native plant seeds are perfect for winter sowing because many need a cool, moist stratification period to germinate. The basic concept is to plant seeds in potting soil placed in a plastic container, add water, cover, label the container and place in a full-sun, protected area outside. Then lightly smooth the soil over the seeds.
