These germinated fast, but haven't grown large enough to transplant yet. It's just now getting really warm here, so hopefully they will take off.

Poor germination rate, even when I followed instructions. None of the seedlings survived to maturity.
- Jeanne S.Verified BuyerRated 5 out of 5 stars5/9/225 Stars
I ordered seed for what we normally call Painted Tongue for the first time from Botanical Interests and am very pleased with the results. The seeds had a very high rate of germination and grew strong and healthy, now beginning to bloom with the beautiful flowers I remember so well. I'm so happy to see them again and enjoy growing them.
- O. P.Verified BuyerRated 4 out of 5 stars5/9/224 Stars
These flowers are beautiful! The color patterns remind me of sparkling stained glass windows. I would give them 5 stars except they are a bit tricky to grow and slugs and snails LOVE the young plants.
