Reviews

Possibly low germination rate

"I wanted to have these wonderful flowers in my backyard to attract pollinators. However, I haven't noticed any sprouts."

Connie L. (2/5)

Coneflower

"Just like the black eyed susan another of my favorite flowers and beneficial benefits to boot."

Arlene B. (5/5)

Beautiful flowers!

"I really love these flowers but I didn’t get a chance to plant them. I hope next year they will still germinate as I think they make a lovely addition to my yard!"

Kaylam337 (5/5)

Germinate well but need the correct environment to grow outside

"I love plants, so I was super excited about these seeds. Unfortunately for my region they came a little late in the season, but I started a few in the house which germinated well. I placed them outdoors and unfortunately the little seedlings did not fair well in a large pot. I will try again in the spring to start them and place them outside earlier in the growing season to see if they will fair better."

Megtyrrelltaylor (4/5)

Good product, I’m just horrible with plants

"I used potting soil and split the seed pack into three small flower pots. The directions on the pack were clear and easy to follow. Unfortunately, my seeds never germinated. We had a few unexpected storms on days that my pots were outside so I’m thinking all of the rain ruined it for me, no fault of the product itself."

Leannal16 (5/5)

Purple coneflower pollenater seeds from Ferry Morse

"The seeds are responding well to greenhouse conditioning. The packaging is very helpful with providing bloom times, germination rate, and background about the flower once it grows. The brand really upped their packaging for the consumer."

Splashwo (4/5)

Longer time needed

"I received these seeds in exchange for an honest review. Honestly I wish we had way more time because the germination and growth takes time. I planted the seeds into my garden bed at the front of the house which is a clay soil. I watered it daily or every other day, along with my other plants and flowers. It’s been a little over a month and it has sprouted less than an inch. But that is expected. So far so good then."

Angelh4 (5/5)

Excited to plant!

"I had delivery issues and just received my seeds. I’m excited to plant them but will wait for next year it’s far too late now. . The instructions on the packaging is clear and easy to follow."

Jessicaiae9f (5/5)

Fast germination and hardy plant

"I started the seed in a pot of soil in my house. The plant started popping out of the soil within a few days. After it was large enough I transplanted it out in my flower garden. It is doing well in my garden, but has not bloomed yet. I haven’t had issues with any pests attacking the plant."

Springb3295 (5/5)

So excited

"So excited for these to come up every year! They came in the mail and suprised me because i forgot about them. I cant wait to see how they give my yard a pop of color!"
