Product Details
This mix will evoke images of the simpler, less hurried time in which our grandmothers lived. An old-fashioned cutting garden was often no more than a corner of the vegetable garden where a few flower seeds were tossed. Their lovely, cheerful blossoms were a bonus after the hard work of sowing, watering, weeding, and harvesting.

I planted this entire packet along with the save the bees and love the pollinators mix and they are showing some seriously robust growth! I gave them nothing special and it less than a month just look at the progress! There's so much growth coming out of these seeds!

I live in the High Desert of Central Oregon, zone 6, and grew these along with the fairy garden mix in a raised bed about 4'x6'. I definitely over seeded and I watered almost daily. The soil was not amended and had been used for a few years with different crops but I just decided to try flowers and I was beyond happy with the production! I cut flowers all season and gave them to friends and neighbors. I loved that they came up in succession and every few weeks the flower varieties would change. I am an experienced gardener but several of these varieties were new to me. This packet grew nice and tall (better than the fairy garden for bouquets). Everyone in my gardening group was asking me about it. 100% enjoyed the flowers and will be planting every year!

only one kind of flower emerged and it isn't what i would consider sturdy enough for a cut flower arrangement. For the expense, i expected more ........
