These seeds are perfect if you want something low-maintenance. They sprouted quickly, and I love how the flowers brighten up my patio. Bugs seem to avoid them, which is a bonus.
I�ve never been great with gardening, but these seeds were incredibly forgiving. They grew quickly and resisted common pests. I�m impressed with the quality and would buy again.
Planted along my vegetable patch, and the results were noticeable. Fewer aphids and beetles, plus the flowers themselves are gorgeous. Very satisfied with the product.
Easy to plant, easy to grow. My garden looks lively now, and the pests are much less of a problem. These seeds definitely delivered what they promised.
These marigolds sprouted quickly and grew beautifully in my garden. I was amazed at how they deterred pests naturally. The flowers added a lovely splash of color and the care instructions were clear. Highly recommend for beginners!
