    Customer photo review of Strawflower Seeds - Swiss Giant Mix

    I planted these in April and they bloomed in October. Once I stopped watering them, they skyrocketed! They are about 7 feet right now. I haven’t watered them in a while and they are very resilient. So beautiful!

It's so important to have feedback like this so we can continually improve our products. 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!

    Ordered these along with multiple other seed packets on 3/4, over 20 days ago. Eden Brothers took over a week to ship the seeds and when they did ship the seeds, they sent an incorrect shipping number so that it wasn't able to be tracked. I followed up multiple times and the only response was to wait and check back after another week. Followed up again after waiting for the period they requested and still no sign of my order.
