- Allie F.Verified BuyerRated 5 out of 5 stars7/8/26Beautiful!
Lots of pretty blooms so far! Seeds are tiny so I just sprinkled them and moved the crowded seedlings to a new place. Those are a little shorter, but still growing well!

- Darah B.IL, United StatesVerified ReviewerRated 5 out of 5 stars7/1/26Beautiful colors
These are slow to get going but eventually they take off. I pinched them for a bushier plant and am very pleased with how they look. The colors are beautiful and look wonderful in the garden and in arrangements! It’s a plus they are a perennial in my area too.
