February in the Mid-Atlantic (self.gardening)

For my fellow US Mid-Atlantic gardeners, what and when do you start prepping for the growing season?

For annuals I'm curious what you feel is worth growing from seed and when do you start it?

For perennials I'd like to know what if anything you do mid to late winter.

As for myself I plan to take some cuttings of elderberry and root them indoors. Hoping I can plant them by spring. In later February I plan to prune a peach tree and then attempt my first ever graft using the pruning.

I'm in the northeast (6a) and I did my winter pruning last weekend, and took the cuttings inside to see if they'll root. I'll put tomato seeds in starters probably in early April.

I assume you'll be a bit ahead of me if you're in zone 7.
