Dirt? Planting Time?

DIRT

I need to get some dirt to fill in some rather large holes in my garden and property. Is there a resouce for dirt, like the city sometimes offers mulch? Or is potting soil from Home Depot best?

PLANTING TIME

I have some seeds that I want to plant for this summer, and was wondering on when is the best time to plant them? The seed company said they would send them at the right time, but they got here a few weeks ago. So I am seeking local experience. The seeds in question are sunflowers, hollyhocks, columbine, and a few others. Please advise.
