Wildflower Seeds Low Growing 1 Ounce Heirloom Bulk Pack

I love these zinnias seeds. They grew really fast after I planted them. The package has a ton of seeds, and there's so many different kinds .They're perfect for adding some color to my garden. If you want some easy, pretty flowers, get these.

Good quality seeds!! They germinated right away and all the different seedlings have been healthy and strong so far. I recommend!

I planted these last fall, in November, in *very* poor soil. It's now April 4th and out of the hundreds of Fall seeds I planted, these have been the first to germinate and are coming up vigorously. I planted them in existing garden beds and pots both; they appear happy and strong in all locations. Though you're not supposed to mulch these, as they need sunlight to germinate, I *did* lightly mulch them with straw over the winter. Them I gently finger-raked the bulk of the mulch off when the weather began to warm up but the ground was still frozen. Worked like a charm!

I’ve bought these seeds two years in a row. Beautiful flowers! The individual flowers grow at different rates, which is nice to see the variety. But based on the sqft area they mention to spread, I’d use a little bigger of an area. The flowers tend to crowd each other out and the hearty flowers (Zinnia’s, etc) take over. Still pretty flowers, but would like to see them all :)

So, the sun was setting, the night was getting cold and windy, a light rain was starting to fall, and the mosquitoes were extremely happy to see me. Yet, I still had 3 more pots to seed, and I was determined to get them seeded before I went inside and grabbed a long delayed meal. I had about 10 packs of flower seeds that I was choosing between, for which seeds to grow in which pots. 2 of those pots had very young trees in them, and the other pot was hosting one sad apple cutting that didn't seem to be planning on surviving. I was hoping having some other plants sharing the pot might just be enough to protect that cutting and give it another chance. So, I picked out which flowers would work best in each pot and set the other seeds aside. At that point I was needed to help out my housemates. With the heavy winds blowing, I couldn't place each seed packet into the planter I wanted to plant them into as the wind was blowing hard enough that boxes and bags were blowing by. Instead, I set the 3 seed packets under the edge of one of the pots that was under the eves and out of reach of wind or rain. An hour later, with dusk well set in, I was able to return to planting the flower seeds. It was now too dark to read the descriptions on each of the flowers, but I thought I remembered which flowers I wanted where. I quickly sprinkled the seeds and applied a thin layer of new potting soil over those seeds. The flower labeles stuck into the appropriate pots. A light watering down with the hose and those seeds should stay put! The next morning I had the energy to double check that I had put the correct seeds into the correct pots, and... Nope. I shifted all the seeds one pot off. This meant that the shortest flowers ended up in the pot with the poor apple cutting, not being able to ever grow enough to shelter the poor apple cutting. The medium height flowers ended up under the young apple tree, where they were a bit crowded into the tree's branches, but still able to grow and find a place for themselves. And these, a beautiful Cosmos mix, were planted where the medium flowers were supposed to go. These beautiful Cosmos mix flowers that were supposed to grow between 18" to 60" were planted under my young fig tree, where they would have about 14" of height to grow into... Sigh... It looked like I would be busy repotting all the Cosmos ,that came up under my fig tree, in a month or two... Imagine my surprise when, 2 days later the Cosmos started sprouting, completely filling up every mm of dirt under my fig tree! By 3 more days the Cosmos were already over 3 inches tall!!! I spent the next 5 days transplanting over 100 baby Cosmos into every 4" pot I could fill with potting soil! Thankfully my new potting soils arrived by the time I was ready to repot the last of the Cosmos! Yay, what a relief to have enough potting soil to be able to get that done! Since I had needed to remove over 2" of soil off the top of the pot my fig tree lives in, exposing a lot of its upper roots, and since I had received my new potting soils, I was able to create the nice soil mixture I use to keep my potted plants happy and refill the missing 2" in the pot over my fig tree's roots. A nice watering and finally I was done with repotting all those Cosmos which I had seeded into the wrong pot! Or so I had thought. But, almost a week later I noticed new seed sprouts under my fig tree again. After a week i had another 60+ Cosmos, all 3" to 5" tall, to repot! Not all those Cosmos were thrilled by my pot selections and how young they were when I repotted them. Despite that, I now have almost 100 Cosmos that I need to move into a permanent location! Good thing I only put a light sprinkling of seeds into my fig pot! I thought that I had sprinkled maybe 30 or 40 seeds. However, there were so many complaints of people not getting any plants to sprout that I only expected to get maybe 1/2 to 1 dozen flowers sprouting and surviving past their 4" life stage... So, for all of the people who said that their Cosmos seeds didn't sprout, I can't imagine what you did to your seeds. Are you certain you actually planted seeds from your Cosmos packet, instead of forgetting to actually add any seeds? If you still can't get your pack of seeds to sprout, bring them over! I mean, I have a black thumb, as far as growing plants in pots, but these Cosmos seeds didn't care if my thumb was black or green, they were gonna grow no matter what I did!

Although a bag of seeds at Lowe’s or Home Depot is like $1.78, you have to pick or you get to pick the ones you want to grow. At the time, we were still in the midst of this pandemic so I opted for seeds shipped to my house. As you can and see from my photos, I really did get a variety of sunflowers in my yard, some even just looked like daisies to me (but this would be bad for me if they were daisies bc I have pups and daisies aren’t pup safe). My biggest one and the reason this bag was so worth it, is because I did get a giant one, he’s 8ft tall and still growing!! I have a 6ft fence but take off 6 inches for the planter boxes I built for growing flowers, my fence top is likely 5.5ft and this guy towers it. There are a few more that might catch up but I sowed these seeds probably within a week or two of each other. I live in south FL so i started sowing back in late March. two weeks in they kind of stopped growing. I had mixed in miracle gro in ground soil with the current..i guess it’s sand here, and they sprouted immediately(i also soaked these seeds for like 24-72 hours and planted the ones that had little roots coming out of the shell) but then stopped growing. So then I did the planter boxes and unfortunately had to transplant these into the boxes. Luckily I only lost a few in the process, like three seedlings about of dozens. The rest came back to life form looking fully wilted from the move, after a few days up to a week or so. All in all, for convenience and the surprise factor, I liked this bag of mixed seeds and you do end up with some really tall ones. My other ones that have bloomed and are tall at about 4-5ft. some bloomed as small as like 10-12 inches tall. I don’t mind the mix in size and shape. If you want particular ones, I would suggest buying each type you want at like Lowe’s. But if you want to spread rando seeds and be surprised, get this pack! I do highly recommend soaking them in shallow water until you see white little roots crawl out of the shell.

I love the variety of flowers and colours, absolutely beautiful!

Good for garden

La flor de cosmos es tan característica de agosto y septiembre, pero poco a poco va desapareciendo. Aunque el costo es elevado, se compensa al ver lo bien que germinan todas las semillas. Puse unas en germinadores y ya están listas para transplante, recién puse otras en un espacio más amplio y con con agrado veo que a dos días de sembrarlas ya están germinando.

only 10 percent of seeds germinated.

This is a big sack of seeds, for me it was not a good buy. It could be my soil conditions, or the bad year. But about 2 foot by 2 foot area had some very sparse growth, the rest did nothing. I'd probably buy again but create better conditions
