I purchased these lilac seeds last spring, and I�m amazed at how quickly they grew. The flowers have a lovely fragrance and have added so much color to my garden. Highly recommend for anyone looking for an easy-to-grow shrub.
I�ve been gardening for years, and these lilac seeds did not disappoint. They grew easily and the colors were exactly what I expected. The scent is a bonus, and my neighbors love them!
I�m no expert gardener, but these seeds were a breeze to plant. Within a couple of months, I had healthy plants, and by summer, they were blooming! I couldn�t be happier with this purchase.
These seeds were surprisingly easy to plant, and within a few months, I started seeing sprouts. The lilacs bloomed in early summer and really transformed my backyard. A definite win!
These lilac seeds have been a wonderful addition to my garden. They�ve taken some time to grow, but once they bloomed, I was thrilled with the outcome. Gorgeous and fragrant flowers!
