- KELLY J. H.Verified ReviewerRated 1 out of 5 stars5/10/26None of them germinated
I had high hopes, but none germinated. I’m a seasoned gardener. I followed all instructions exactly for direct sowing in March and April. Soil meets the requirements needed. I reseeded twice. I didn’t over or underwater. I’m in sunny Southern California zone 10b. I’m so disappointed.
