I was amazed by how quickly the seeds grew into full, healthy plants. The blooms were huge and extremely vibrant. Neighbors kept asking what I planted!
These seeds were a delight! I planted them in early spring and within weeks, vibrant blooms appeared. The mix of colors really brightened my backyard, and they attracted hummingbirds too. Very easy to grow.
Germination took longer than I expected, but once they sprouted, the flowers were stunning. They bloom for a long time and keep my garden lively all season.
Most of the seeds germinated, though a few didn�t make it. Still, the resulting flowers were vibrant and lasted long. I�d recommend starting a few extra just in case.
The flowers are stunning and attract pollinators constantly. I planted a mix in my pots and garden beds, and they�ve exceeded my expectations. Easy to grow even for someone with a brown thumb!
