- TayLynn H.Verified BuyerRated 5 out of 5 stars7/17/26Feverfew seeds
Bought these late into the season because a packet from a different seller never germinated. I can’t tell you how happy I was when I had great germination from this seed packet. Plants are all doing well in my garden now!

We're so happy to hear about your incredible experience with the Feverfew Seeds! It's awesome that you got such great germination after that disappointing experience with the other seller - there's nothing better than seeds that actually deliver when you need them to! And how exciting that all your plants are doing well in the garden now - feverfew is such a wonderful addition with those cheerful little daisy-like flowers and all its amazing benefits! We totally get how frustrating it can be when seeds don't germinate, especially late in the season, so we're thrilled our feverfew came through for you! Thanks for sharing your feverfew growing success with us! Keep on growing 🌻️
- Julia B.Verified BuyerRated 5 out of 5 stars7/16/26So many blooms!
I had great luck with winter sowing these! Now I'm enjoying tons of first year blooms on healthy 2-3ft tall plants that don't seem to mind heat or drought.

We're so happy to hear about your incredible experience with the Feverfew Seeds! It's awesome that winter sowing worked so well for you - those healthy 2-3ft tall plants loaded with blooms in their first year just shows how vigorous these beauties really are! And we love that they're handling the heat and drought like champs - there's nothing better than tough, resilient flowers that keep blooming no matter what Mother Nature throws at them! Your success with winter sowing is super inspiring too - it's such a great technique for getting these hardy perennials established! Thanks for sharing your feverfew growing success with us!

- JOHN S.Verified BuyerRated 5 out of 5 stars6/22/26Germination rate
Almost all of the seeds germinated and are progressing, albeit slowly.
Which best describes you as a gardener? IntermediateBIBotanical Interests6/23/26Hey John,
Thank you so much for the 5-star review! It's fantastic to hear that almost all of your Feverfew seeds germinated - that's exactly what we love to see! Don't worry about the slower progression, Feverfew can be a bit of a patient grower in the early stages, but once it gets established, you'll have beautiful daisy-like blooms that are absolutely worth the wait. Keep on growing 🌻
