Most people are in such a hurry in the spring to dig the garden. STOP.
I never dig my beds in the spring, a gentle raking is all that is needed. My reward for this is that I have not had to buy annuals for years. They seed themselves and I just have to move them around
Patience people.
Petunias, nicotianna, feverfew, violas, calendula, sweet allysum, and many others all seed themselves nicely.
I like them as fillers between the perennials, and when the perennials are done, or between blooms, they fill in the void.
So, don't be in such a hurry to dig the beds up next spring. You will be rewarded with a plethora of baby annuals you can move wherever you need them.
