"The first plants are starting to bloom and I have an abundance of new plants. I can see a good variety of plants growing. I would say so far my expectations have been met. I am looking forward to new flowers popping up."
"I love these wildflowers. My yard is alone in the multitudes of blooms in my area. Many people stopped me to ask about my garden. I told them I got the seeds at American Meadows! I bought the 1/4 pound bags twice, I wanted more area covered the next year. This year I used a combination of saved seeds and self sowed seeds, and didn't need to use the bag of seeds I bought this year. . I will need to plant more variety next year. I keep coming back here to buy my seeds and plants because the germination rate and quality of blooms is exceptional!"
"I had a gorgeous meadow in the back of my 2 acres. Unfortunately it got so hot he red in Texas it didn't last as long as I had expected. I'm sure they will reseed for either fall or spring."
"My front yard desert landscape of rocks and bushes and trees needed dressing up so I just sowed a bag of seeds by the fist full as I walked through the yard side arming the seeds into the base of plants and nothing more. Spectacular results of bunches of color throughout where the seeds "took". Talk about bang for the buck !! and many are coming up for a repeat performance. I live in Las Vegas under strict water restrictions so with no additional water usage I refurbished my entire front yard for about 20$ and 1 fun filled hour."
"I would probably start the seeds in containers and then transplant them to specific places next time since I have a small yard. It was fun to see them go wild this year though."
"I followed all directions. We have a little creek flowing so plenty of water. I was excited when I saw the first blooms of this season, but only about six of the red ones blossomed, NONE of the others. Disappointed."
"makes my backyard attractive."
"People literally stop in their tracks at stare at my flowers. Complete strangers complement on the vibrant colors of these easy to grow beauties. I am by no means a gardener and even I could not kill these. HIGHLY recommend."
"Had high expectations from the photos and descriptions. Got very few plants and not much variety. Only flowers are baby's breath and bachelor buttons."
"I had a large area in my backyard (about 1/4 acre) that had pretty good soil but no sprinklers. I now have a beautiful meadow of flowers of all colors and types. Requires an occasional hose watering (because it has been a very hot summer) but has drawn many types birds and bees too."
