    First time growing blanket flower seeds, and got awesome germination from this packet. So what’s the problem? These aren’t blanket flowers and they look like black-eyed Susans to me. They’re pretty, but not what I ordered and definitely not something I want in front of my border.

    I started 10 from seed indoors, 2 of which bloomed the first summer. A The second year, the blooms started in May, (zone 6b) and are still going strong in mid August after deadheading a couple of times. They are absolutely stunning and low maintenance. The bees love them. Also, the foliage remained looking really nice in the winter,
