"received the seeds fairly quickly and planted them right away. It took maybe a week for the first sprout to appear. These flowers grew in nicely and were pretty easy to care for. Basic sunlight and water! I did add a little bit of plant food to the water once and I think that helped a lot. My garden looks so pretty with these flowers."
"These seeds were probably wonderful and easy to keep up considering they are annual. They didn’t get a chance to grow to full potential this year because it started to get cold but I have high hopes to see them bloom next year! I had used regular dirt and some flower food and didn’t seem to get eaten by birds thankfully. No squirrels either haha."
"Glad to be able to try out some new, cute little flowers. The colors on the packaging looks nice, and the fact that they're edible too was a surprise! I planted them in a nice spaced container but it hasn't grown out yet to see it's results but I'm looking forward to how cute and pretty these little flowers will look. I love flowers and gardening stuff so this was a great thing to get."
"I was given these Nasturium, Alaska Mixed Colors Seeds packet free of charge from Influenster in exchange for my honest review of the product. I planted the seeds in mid-June and by the beginning of August we are seeing quite a few sprouted! In my area, we have experienced quite a drought and heat wave, so while the package outlines 32 days to bloom - I’m sure the dry heat has impacted their germination timeline. I am excited to see them continue to grow and bloom in the near future!"
"While they haven't flowered yet, these seeds seem like really good quality. They started sprouting within just a couple of days and have been growing steadily, even with our heat bubble and very little rain. Even the leaves are cute, so I don't mind that they haven't bloomed. Definitely happy and would seek these out again. They are in an almost completely shaded spot and still doing very well. Our soil is not the greatest and again, I say they are doing well. Definitely good quality seeds."
"Admittedly, I do not have much of a green thumb. I love gardening and I love trying to be a good gardener. Sometimes I get it right and the flowers are spectacular, and other times I can't keep a cactus alive. The beauty of the Nasturtium is that they're very versatile. They can be grown in the garden bed, containers, pots or hanging baskets. They're easy to grow, germinate quickly and I cannot wait for them to bloom! Thanks to @Influenster for the free sampme of these seeds. The vibrant colors and variety will definitely improve the look of the garden!"
"As soon as I received the seed packet, I put the seeds in a pot with some soil. Seeds are a good size and easy to handle. So far no animals or bugs have gotten into the pot, but the flowers haven't sprouted yet. If I can, I'll try to come back and add a photo once the flowers have bloomed. I know they'll do just fine, Ferry-Morse has great seeds!"
"I am going to wait until next season to plant these seeds but from the packaging they look beautiful. They seem easy to plant and care is fairly easy."
"Most if not all of the seeds germinated, so that was a pleasant surprise. My four year old helped me plant and care for them. We planted the in large pots with store bought soil and just water every few days. Super low maintainence, and it has been a doubly rewarding experience thanks to the pretty flowers and the bonding/learning experience with my daughter."
"Most definitely the the germination rate is amazing works for my current grow conditions I do not have many pests in our area but so far zero issues. I enjoy the blossom varieties of the Nasturtiums. Highly recommend this brand of seeds been in business sense 1856 which says alot. @Ferry~Morse"
