    I planted three seeds indoors this winter, and they all sprouted and grew well. I even got slightly different leaf patterns. They survived by a west-facing window, even when I forgot to water them sometimes.

    I winter sowed the entire packet and it grew well over a 150 plants which were then donated to our local Master Gardener Plant Sale! These grew beautifully and now I am water propagating plants for next spring. I just wish the seed packet would tell which cultivars are likely to grow!

    Started these seeds in April indoors under grow lights. Every seed germinated.

    Have been topping off the plants this summer because they grew over 3 ft tall.

    Will definitely buy these seeds again!
