"I received this product for free in exchange for my honest review. I was so excited to receive these seeds as I've really enjoyed gardening the last few years, especially flowers and a more cottage garden vibe. I'm excited to see these grow and I appreciated how many seeds were included and the helpful info on the packet that helped me decide where to plant."
"I've never grown hollyhawk before so I'm very excited for this. I've been bugging my husband non stop to set up my raises beds this year. I'm ready for my flowers. I will have to wait a couple weeks still until I get these planted but I'm definitely getting prepared."
"I planted seeds in pots. The seeds are just beginning to sprout. The health looks good. Quantity is yet to be determined. Maturity is month off or more due to weather. No fragrance too date"
