"I over watered them and they didn’t make it but while they were there they were beautiful I planted them in a bed around my tree and the pop Of color was amazingI over watered them and they didn’t make it but while they were there they were beautiful I planted them in a bed around my tree and the pop Of color was amazing"
"Have not planted yet."
"These seeds are really great because they are easy to plant and they have always came up for me. Also they are easy to grow and they always look very nice when they fully bloom."
"The Ferry-Morse Pansy Swiss Giants did not bloom as they should have. I usually have a green thumb and can grow just about anything. These sprouted but did not bloom. I have used these before and had favourable results with rich vibrant colors. I will try again in the spring."
"Getting ready for lots of color and cooler weather. These are my favorite flowers."
"So they are just starting to come up but I am super excited! These should be super beautiful with all the different colored pansies. I can’t wait to see and smell the scent. Seeds looked good when planting and the process was super easy, just have to remember to water consistently!"
"I am not known for being a person that grows things, and I didn’t do great with these. But directions were very clear, and I do have a few small plants trying to grow! So I think they’re just a little slow, and I would definitely try seeds from this brand again."
"I followed the instructions on the back of the package and they planted well and did start to sprout. They didn’t bloom as big as I was hoping but it could have been because it was so hot this summer."
"I unfortunately didn’t get to fully appreciate this product as my pot got blown over during a bad storm right when they were starting to germinate. The germination was quicker than I expected. They were also full and healthy looking."
"I bought these Ferry-Morse Pansy Swiss-Giants mixed colors seeds a week or so ago. I’m excited to plant them in my patio area and hope they grow quickly. I like the detailed packaging, including instructions for planting, the map of when is the best time to plant for my area of the USA, and care & maintenance. Overall I’m quite happy with my purchase and look forward to watching these flowers grow and bloom."
