Great seed.
- DVerified BuyerRated 1 out of 5 stars9/23/2514% Germination
I tried twice to germinate. First try was 4 seeds, second time was 10 seeds. Per instructed, barely notched each seed and surface sowed. Only 2 of the 14 seeds germinated. Both seedlings died. Am keeping remaining seeds moist in hopes of sprouting. Date stamp was 12/2026. Disappointed.
