    Customer photo review of Cleome Seeds - Mixed Colors

    Not sure what the problem is for some of the recent reviewers, but mine are doing great so far. I just put my seedlings into the ground here in the North East. I started them on a heat map and under a grow light in my shed in mid-March. Dropped 2-3 seeds per cell and here we are. Happy to update the review later this season when they’re in full bloom, if able to. Everything we’ve gotten from Eden over the last few years has been great!

    I have always loved Cleome. Splurge on a large amount of seeds and it will re seed itself forever!

    I’m in zone 8. Every year the cleome comes back. I love these. Only planted one year 8 years ago.

    This flower did not grow at all for me. I follow instructions in regards to light and water for starting seeds indoors - unfortunately I didn’t get one bloom.

    These cleomes were so easy to grow! I am certain that it is not recommended but at one point I just took a small handful of seeds put them where I wanted them and watered! I didn't "plant" them! I had a ton of them come up and they were beautiful!!!! Next year, there will be MORE cleomes throughout my property!! By the way, I kinda liked the smell!!

    These grew well but they were not as tall as expected. I don't think they were more than 2.5 feet tall. But pretty!
