Great communication with the seller, the seeds look amazing and everything was shipped quickly! Thank you so much!
*update: the seeds germinated beautifully. I pre-soaked them in a low hydrogen peroxide to water ratio for an hour or so, (Not the blue bells), and they all sprouted within 24 hours.
The bluebell seeds went directly into a biodegradable seed starter and covered them with shade. They sprouted within 2 days, which surprised me because it is 100F here.
I’m in zone 9b and purchased bluebells, blue pumpkins, painted daisies and San marzano. The seller threw in black oil sunflower seeds and they are so pretty and strong looking already. Thank you!

Fast shipping and excellent germination! Lightly covered and kept under the humidity dome in the darkness as instructed. I had some germinate in just TWO DAYS! These little guys are 11 days old under grow lights. I’m in zone 8B Central Texas so I’m getting a Jumpstart to my spring plants. Can’t wait for the flowers!

Seeds came quickly, they’re native to my area but they haven’t been popping up in the past few years so these are now seed bombs 😉
