'Qustion Impossible'

Does anyone know of any perennials that can be grown over the winter (starting as early as mid December) that can be grown in containers in my garage and will be in bloom beginning in May of 2012? My usual role at Michelle's annual plant sale to benefit the Childrens' Hospital of Boston has been as "barker" trying to draw people into the tent. This year I wanted to be even more hands on and try to grow something to sell! Plants that are in bloom are much easier to sell than green plants even with pictures of what the flowers will look like later on. I have tried winter sowing with not a lot of success and thought maybe I could control things better in my garage. Maybe I should be planting things now for 2013? Earlier this fall I planted some lilies of the valley outside that I hope will be big (and at least starting to bloom) by May.
So - the "impossible question" is - Does anyone knows of any perennials that if started now (not in a greenhouse or with special lighting)will be viable and at least budding at the beginning in May?
Thank you all.
