    I sowed about half the packet, planting half under grow lights and sowing the other half directly, but of all the seeds only a single sprout popped up. That sprout that did emerge is doing really well and super hardy though! I will try again at some point with the rest of the seeds.

    What an absolute delight the Baby Blue Eyes are! They pop up in early spring and last for almost a month! I will order these again and again, in fact have thought about giving them out for gifts!

    These jump out of the ground under suitable germination conditions. I used a winter sowing technique on seeds I purchased a couple of years ago. All of the seeds I planted germinated in a matter or days. Looking forward to the flowers!

    I love these little flowers. They all germinated and are blooming. We're a little late here in zone 7A because we've had a cold wet spring and early summer. They are cascading over the edges of the pots. A+. I wish I could post a picture!

    These are doing lovely after scattering on the disturbed roadside in February zone 5. It's always enchanting when you get that first glimpse of a baby blue eye winkin back atcha. Then you see another and another and behold an entire field is awash in them! These are cute peeking out amongst low growers like rock rose iceplant, in flowerpots, or just sprinkled about like fairy dust whithersoever thou goest.
