I had poor germination rate, but the weather was weird this spring so it may not have entirely been the seeds' fault. Only had 4 plants come up. The blooms are beautiful, but none of them are colored-all 4 are white. And half of the plants produced single blooms instead of the ruffly doubles as shown in the photos. I recommend staking them because they bend from the weight of the flowers. The petals fall off after only a couple days so if you're looking for a long-lasting flower, this isn't it.

The seeds germinated well and the plants took a long time to bud and bloom and then the peonies were Hungarian Blue and not the pictured variety.

Did not come up

I was disappointed by these seeds. I grew 11 plants and only one was double (it looked like 'Black Swan'). The other 10 were single breadseed poppies that looked like other varieties available through Botanical Interests such as 'Hungarian Blue', 'Drama Queen' and 'Lauren's Grape'. While those varieties are pretty, they are not what I paid for. I was really looking forward to growing peony poppies. :/ This is not the first time Botanical Interest seeds have disappointed me; I also bought a double stocks mix and all 14 of the plants that I grew from the seeds were single. As for the color of the blooms, 13/14 were the same lavender color and 1 was magenta. I highly recommend not purchasing these two mixes. One seed mix from Botanical Interests that I do highly recommend is the California flower mix. It was gorgeous. And the salpiglossis mix, while difficult to grow, was also stunning.

Package said Peony Poppies but what came up were Shirley Poppies or single junky flowers. They packaged the wrong seeds.
