Seller is pleasant and shipment was swiftly excited to plant and see the outcome ty
Thank you very much! they look great and arrived in good condition!
The seeds arrived around the estimated time of arrival. They were well packaged and looked good. I planted a few 3 days ago and I've already got sprouts.
I hope these flowers will grow in North Dakota! The colors are vibrant and hopefully the bees will like them. I will have to wait until after the Big Thaw in April before I can plant them - can't wait!
