- Edith A.OH, United StatesVerified BuyerRated 3 out of 5 stars6/12/26Great germination
Planted out my starts several weeks ago and they are growing. I can't wait to see how much they grow and produce their beautiful flowers. Can't wait to make tea with them.

- Jennifer P.Verified BuyerRated 3 out of 5 stars5/19/26Blue tea
I ordered these seeds and my original pkg only had a few seeds so this amazing company sent me another packet!
But I’ve only had 4 seeds out of all of them that have come up… was therefore disappointed with the seeds themselves
