    Love! Love! Love!

    I ordered the seeds in February and planted them in seed trays the same month. I'm in Zone 6b. In February & March it is very cold and even into April there's chances of frost. The seeds/ plants did well anyway under hoops & covers. In April they were trf'd from seed trays to the ground. Mid-late April they began to get time without the tunnel cover. Every check on these plants from February to June showed they were doing quite well! It is now early June and I have begun cutting them for bouquets. (They have not been under any tunnel cover for weeks.) They look great in the ground (garden rows), in pots and in bouquets. They are so soft, cute and adorable! I love how they look in the bouquets!!

    Hey Deanna,

    What an amazing Bunny Tails journey from February all the way to your first June harvests! We love how you started them early in Zone 6b and carefully transitioned them from seed trays to the ground with those hoops and covers. Your dedication really paid off! It sounds like they're absolutely thriving in every spot - garden rows, pots, and especially in those adorable bouquets. We totally agree that they're so soft, cute and perfect for cutting! Thanks for sharing your incredible Bunny Tails grass success with us! Keep on growing 🌻️

    great germination

    These seeds germinated quickly and one pot of seeds (about 1/3 pack) have produced a lot of plants. I'll be able to separate it into at least 4 bundles to pot on or plant in the ground.

    Hey Shannon,

    We're so thrilled to hear about the fantastic germination rate you got from our Bunny Tails Grass Seeds and that just one-third of the pack gave you so many plants - what an amazing result! We love that you'll have plenty to work with whether you decide to pot them up or plant them directly in the ground. Thanks for sharing your growing success with us! Keep on growing 🌻️

    Design of Packet

    I received my seeds very promptly. I haven't planted them yet. I am going to plant them inside over the winter. I really like the way the back of the pack has all of the growing info. (planting date, spacing, depth, growing height..) plus there is a label section that you can cut out and put on a plant marker.

    Which best describes you as a gardener? Intermediate

    Hey Kathy,

    Thank you so much for taking the time to share your thoughts about our seed packet design! It's wonderful to hear that you appreciate all those practical details we include on the back - we really try to make sure gardeners have everything they need right at their fingertips without having to hunt around for planting information.

    And we're so glad you noticed the cut-out plant marker label! That's one of those little touches we added because we know how easy it is to forget what you planted where, especially when you're starting seeds indoors over the winter like you're planning to do.

    Your Bunny Tails are going to be such a delightful addition to your indoor growing setup! There's something so charming about those soft, fluffy seed heads - they're going to bring such a lovely texture to your space.

    Thanks again for the feedback on our packaging - it really means a lot to know that these details make a difference for gardeners like you!

    Keep on growing 🌻️

    Bunny Tails seeds did not germinate. Not one. So sad as loved these. Started in greenhouse and followed instructions. Very disappointed.
