"These seeds are easy to sprout and have high germination. The blooms are beautiful, however, I have not gotten any pink ones. Also, on the packet, the seed depth should be surface sow, instead of saying 1/4". Besides that, the alyssum is amazing."
"When I received this package I planted the seeds. Couple weeks after they started to sprout and eventually we had some beautiful flowers. They were colorful and gave the yard a beautiful garden."
"I am absolutely thrilled with the Ferry-Morse Alyssum Pastel Carpet! 🌸 This beautiful mix of pastel blooms has transformed my garden into a vibrant, fragrant oasis. The delicate flowers are not only stunning but also attract butterflies and bees, adding life and movement to my yard. It's easy to grow and maintain, making it perfect for gardeners of all levels. If you want to add a splash of color and charm to your garden, I highly recommend these lovely alyssum flowers!"
"These seeds were quick to germinate. I was so happy with the quality I ordered more seeds from the company. It hasn’t been long enough to bloom but if I can manage to keep the seedlings happy I’m excited to see them bloom. I’ve had purple and white varieties but was excited to try the pastel carpet."
"I'm really excited! We were late getting these planted so we don't have flowers yet but they were easy to plant and we do have some small sprouting. Can't wait to see once we have flowers. My daughter loves being responsible for watering"
"There were a good amount of seeds that came in the packet. It clearly states on the packaging the proper times to start the planting process. It didn’t take long for me to see sprouting. I didn’t have my pot in a lit enough area so make sure you have the proper pot & a good area to place it. They seem to be low maintenance but we’ll see once I fully place them."
"I received these a little late in the season but they look so pretty and I can’t wait to plant them when the weather cools. I have a flower garden already and this will go perfectly!"
"I love how beautiful these flowers look, I just planted them in an outdoor planter. It took me less than 10 minutes to do that, I also adore the fact that these flowers attract pollinators! I love little bumble bees and bees dancing over my flowers."
"I'm waiting for them to sprout. They are already planted. The maintenance is low. The packaging is very nice. The flowers look pretty in the packaging. Let's see when they come out. The rest I can't see yet, we have to wait for them to sprout."
"I love Alyssum and all the color of them. I already planned and waiting for them to grow. They came in the nice package and easy instructions to follow. Easy to take care of and quality seeds. Couldn’t ask for more. Love Alyssum and the brand"
