Seeds to plant outside in late summer and fall

Hi,

I am in northeast Florida where we had a cold winter this year (but it didn't get lower than the mid 20s here). My gauras self seeded in the fall and are doing beautifully. I want more types of seeds that I can do the same with (sow in the summer/fall). This spring (late Feb-Mar)I direct-sowed over 50 new (to me) seed varieties. I have seen some excellent sprouting but only on the easy stuff like marigolds, cosmos, zinnias, mesa yellow galliard, and good sprouting on Echinacea PowWow Wild Berry. The rest I am waiting for. The problem is that if they don't sprout and get established soon, the heat may get them.

For my 2011 garden, I only want to try seeds that I can direct sow this year in the late summer and fall.

Please, please, any suggestions?

Thanks,

Bob
