Packaged very nicely with instructions/information for each seed I purchased. Shipped quickly.

Sent in good time. Can’t wait to plant.

The first shipment to me was incorrect. I used the link in the original order to leave a comment. The correct item arrived a few days later; I appreciate the quick turnaround. It's difficult to review this purchase, since I haven't planted them yet. They arrived well-packaged and timely. I plan to winter sow these seeds in November, and expect to transplant them next April.

Item as described, cute package, quick shipping
