    Customer photo review of Geranium Seeds - Maverick Appleblossom

    100% germination created strong plants that are full with prolific tall flower spikes filling my garden bed and pots. Good in the ground or containers. Big plants - follow spacing. Blooms last a long time and less deadheading needed than with other common varieties. Only 10 seeds per pack though.

    Easy to grow, good germination. It's been 2 months and they haven't bloomed. But they are very healthy and next year I will plant earlier.

    So far so good! I planted these seeds April first and every seed germinated, I can’t wait to see the blooms. Every plant already has about six leaves and are about 3-4 inches tall. I did start my seeds indoors this year due to cold weather in Massachusetts.

    I should have been more diligent and researched. I received 7 seeds. That works out to $1 each seed. I hope they all sprout.

Feedback like yours helps us deliver the best quality products and service possible. We do list the seed count, on each product page. It is listed under planting information, but we know not everyone sees this. After speaking with our Customer Service Team, it seems we were able to resolve this for you. Thanks for your time in sharing your experience with us!

    Bought these geranium seeds last year from another company with 100% germination. Decided to try Eden brothers this year with the purchase of other seeds. Only half of this year’s geranium seeds germinated. Also purchased diachondra silver falls seeds with even less germination 3 out of 10.. However the apple blossom petunia seeds were more successful with 21 out of 24 plants emerging.

    I purchased a pack from Edenbrothers and several packs from another popular seed company. Started them the same time, same seed starting medium, same light, same temps. I had 100% germination with Edenbrothers. Fast forward a few weeks and the plants from here are absolutely thriving. The others are weak and half the size. Seed quality is important for more than just germination. I’ve had wonderful success with every seed pack from your company. Thank you for providing a product that I can depend on with every sowing.

    I received these seeds promptly and 9 out of 10 germinated using a heating mat. They each grew to be very large and beautiful in my garden All Summer Long.
