    Customer photo review of Alyssum Seeds - Easter Bonnet Mix

    Great germination rate, but the colors are nothing like the photos. I planted them a second time to test because I thought I’d personally mixed up seed packets, but same result the second time. Either they’re nothing like pictures or I was sent the wrong seeds. 😂

    Store owner replied: Hello Lynzi,J. Thank you for your review of Eden Brothers! We greatly appreciate you bringing this to our attention. It's so important to have feedback like this so we can continually improve our products and processes. After speaking with our Customer Service Team, it seems we were able to assist you with this. Thanks for your time in sharing your experience with us!

    The color mix is fabulous! Gorgeous in my container garden where I have taller plants and these fill in the gaps. I've learned it's really important to use lightweight soil when planting seeds - saw a review photo here with heavy mulch and that's too much for the sprouts to fight, maybe that's why they didn't expand as expected? They're not supposed to get tall. Very happy, thank you!

    The description states a packet will have around 200 seeds. What was in my packet was maybe, and this is a liberal estimate, maybe 50 seeds. I will have to order more to complete my project and not pleased about it.

    Super cute colors! However, the plants did not grow larger. Nice for pots or as a groundcover between plants as a pollinator attraction.
