"It's still a bit cool for starting seeds here but from previous use this should be awesome. Excited to see how well they take off. I do with there were a few more beans in the package but for the price it's great."
"I received these seeds from Influenster in exchange for my honest review. These beans performed very well. It took only about a week for the beans to sprout through the soil. The packaging provided very informative information on what to do which made the whole process of planting them extremely straightforward and easy. I can’t wait to see what they will look like once full grown. Overall I have no complaints."
"I was pleasantly surprised by how well these Scarlet Runner bean seeds performed. The packaging was secure and informative, making it easy to store and plant. The seeds sprouted quickly, and the texture of the beans is smooth and fresh. The price is very reasonable for the quality. The scent of the flowers is subtle but lovely, and they truly attract pollinators. Overall, very effective and beautiful addition to the garden."
"These scarlet runner seeds were easy to grow. The package was easy to open. The instructions were clear. I planted them a couple of weeks ago and they are sprouting. I think by July they’ll be fully grown. These should be a good pop of color in my garden."
"I was so excited when this was offered here and was able to redeemed it. I love planting both flowers and vegetables so this made me super excited. It hasn’t sprouted yet since I just planted it but can’t wait till it’s start growing"
"I have been looking for other ways to add color to my yard so I was excited to try these Scarlett Runner seeds. This pack came with 6 seeds and they were pretty easy to plant. Mine started to germinate fairly quickly and the first plant broke ground in about a week. I can't wait to see the flowers and try the beans! The pollinators in our yard are really going to enjoy this new addition. I'm excited to really experience these Scarlett Runners as they continue to grow."
"I decided to grow my beans in a raised bed. They were easy to plant followed the information on the package. I can wait to see the red flowers and attract hummingbirds."
