I've had a bit if a disaster with my snapdragons. So i'll start some more asap, and maybe some larkspur and definitely chillies.
Go on, inspire me.....
.....also looking at the best time to sow eucalyptus- would like an early start and I also have hibiscus mahogany splendour for my something new  If i can get some going in pots I could keep on my patio ( even though i hate plants in pots!) and they should give me some late autumn foliage that looks a little special.

I've been prompted by Veggie to look at snap peas but fear I'm bound to fail without the mild weather she enjoys, so perhaps thinking about it will be as far as it goes. I'm not sowing toms (except windowsill ones) too early this year, unless I get twitchy

Is this for flowers, not veggies?

Yes, all in January. The end of January is almost February, which is nearly spring.

We can have snow in February. I think V just brings out the optimist in us.

I'm going to sort through any perennial flowers and winter sow all those. From memory I think I have Polemonium (Jacob's Ladder), Eryngium (Sea Holly), Verbena Bonariensis and various Hollyhocks. Whatever I find shall be sown!
I'm also going to do some Sweet Peas and Cerinthe. Cerinthe can take quite a bit of cold so I like sowing an early batch, then following with a later one for successive flowers.
