- Donna G. S.Verified ReviewerRated 5 out of 5 stars4/5/26Beautiful and easy!
I planted a few seeds in three pots that are near stone columns on our patio. Four days later, they’ve sprouted and I’m excited to see how they grow.
We have so many hummingbirds and bees. They will be happy too.

We're so excited to hear your Funny Valentine Blend Cypress Vine Seeds sprouted so quickly! Four days is amazing - they're clearly loving their spot near those stone columns on your patio. These gorgeous vines are going to create such a beautiful display as they climb and spread. Your hummingbirds and bees are definitely going to be thrilled with all those lovely tubular blooms! You've got such a wonderful pollinator paradise in the making. Keep on growing 🌻️

I planted these on 2-14-25 and I looked at them today 2-16-25 and found these. I did have them in a small Jiffy greenhouse, in my oven. (Oven is dark and the pilot light keeps them warm.) I have the perfect spot for them along my fence.

I love that these seeds were available at this price but would have preferred there have been a solitary color.
