    Good seeds. Plants are strong and growing well among other plants and grasses. They have many buds. Looking forward to seeing the colors.

    Canterbury Bells Seeds - Mixed

    I ordered more than a dozen different seeds from Eden Brothers with huge success except for this particular packet of Canterbury Bells. It had terrible germination rates and those that did germinate were extremely weak plants from the start. These seedlings were grown in the exact same conditions as the many other Eden Brother seeds that thrived. Out of the entire packet, I have two plants that survived to a respectable and plantable size. Pretty disappointed, but I'm a realist: I know sometimes you get a bum packet - it's nature after all.
