TOW What to Do Now - plan

I have not found someone in the Southern Hemisphere to coordinate a
"What to Do Now" TOW. December is the easiest month to start here
north of the Equator, as there is so little to do relative to the
rest of the year. Perhaps someone in the Southern Hemisphere may
like to begin when their gardening slows down a bit.

My plan is to break the jobs up into five categories and introduce
one per night, starting on Sunday. This will allow for comments
during the rest of the week, which I will gather into one document
for posting next year at the relevant time. I hope I have them
organized so that the first ones will produce the most comment. If
not, I will rearrange them next month.

1.Garden (including bulbframes)
2.Pots (tender plants and winter forcing)
3.Providers ( seed sellers, especially of short-lived seed and
specialty nurseries that are open for only a short season)
4.Propagation
5.Problems

I have been scouring my library, and have most information about
Great Britain and the west coast of North America. I hope those
living in other places will fill in my gaps.
