Reviews

Chabaud Carnation seeds

"I purchased these seeds, planted them, spent a lot of time, energy, resources potting and caring for these seeds. After almost two years of waiting with excitement, high hopes and anticipation, they bloomed into insignificant, four petaled Dianthus. This is the second time that I purchased seeds from Ferry Morse that grew out to be a bogus plant. I did some research on this company, and now I know that this is very typical of this unreliable seed company. I'm so mad that I wasted all of my time and resources!!!"

Misleading pics on packets

"Bought carnation chaubaud "giant" seeds expecting big beautiful flowers instead I got puny 4 petal flowers. I am terribly disappointed and won't buy your misleading seed packs again 😕"

"Love how these grew I can’t wait to plant some more they are so beautiful. They only took few weeks to grow and we’re not hard at all. Definitely would recommend"

Can't wait for Spring

"So far so good!! I love carnations over any other flower. The germination is about 2 weeks, but I had to start over as we had a tornado come through and decimated our garden and a few trees. I still can't find a few planters. Thank god the only real damage. I can't wait to see the colors if they arrive before fall!"
