I purchased three packs of these seeds because I wanted to do a mass planting in a large pot. Turns out I only needed one pack. I decided to use all three because the seeds are absolutely minuscule but every single one sprouted. 🌱 These are so much fun to grow. So far. The squirrels get into them outside so I had to move them in. They haven't flowered yet but oh my God I can't wait.

I have tried several different kinds of these seeds and have never been successful with germination. These seeds had an abundance of starts for me!
