This worked for me in Cincinnati two years ago, Nancy.  Sprinkle the seed 
right over the snow.  I did it in late January.  I did the same with larkspur 
seed at the same time with much success.  The larkspur have since reseeded 
themselves.  It's amazing that the delicate looking seedlings come out in the 
fall and survive the winter freezes and snow.
