Color Nothing Like The Picture

Jun 10, 2019

I was expecting more of a dark mauve with white trim color. Instead, it came out fuchsia with no trim.

A Beautiful Surprise

Sep 21, 2019

I had forgotten I'd planted these seeds, so I was pleasantly surprised to see these beautiful variegated leaves and mauve flowers with white edges rambling along the wall in the garden. Maybe "Chocolate" isn't the most accurate name, but these are very attractive and unusual nevertheless. I will definitely be buying them again next year.

Disappointing

Jun 16, 2020

I wish I could report these are great. However, I cannot. Not only were there only 9 seeds in a packet, of those 9 seeds, only 3 (1/3) germinated. Some failure is normal, but 2/3 nonviability is not acceptable. And only 9 seeds in a packet? Really? Especially when they don't germinate well? Too sad. I hope the three I have are worth it.

Sinclair Slakk from VA

Owner Response: We are sorry you experienced poor germination with this product. Our seeds are tested frequently by a third-party laboratory to ensure germinate rates exceed federal and our own standards. This is a more rare and expensive seed and 8 to 9 seeds per packet is normal. A customer service agent will be with you shortly.
