More seeds than expected. Cant wait to grow these.
So far these seeds are growing great! I had a great germination success rate! I would definitely buy it again!
They took a little longer to grow, but had an amazing yield. Grew well if direct sown in Zone 9a!
Love this flower! I can’t wait to see how it continues to grow!
I planted the seeds on February 7. They have all germinated and are now about 1" tall. Looking good at this moment & I'm hoping they will become beautiful flowers for drying & using in my natural medicine chest.
