- KatieVerified ReviewerRated 2 out of 5 stars5/25/26Only One Germinated
Unfortunately I had one seed in the entire packet germinate. Looking forward to seeing it grow/bloom but always a disappointment when only one comes up.

These are a beautiful addition to my garden. They are thriving in my North Florida raised beds.

I just sowed seeds last week and they are just starting to sprout.
I do soak the seed in warm water for abou 2 hrs. before sowing.
I do love the flower color and patterns and leaves taste great in a salad. I will follow up as the season progresses.
