Another lovely member of our Cool Wave Series that grows long-lasting, trailing pansies that are designed for cool-season color. Cool Wave Frost Pansy starts white, then as cool temperatures set in, develops a light blue “frost” from the edges as it matures! Extremely fast growing, Cool Wave Frost Pansy can bring its beautifully understated color to both spring and autumn.

    Customer photo review of Pansy Seeds - Cool Wave Frost

    I should have read the reviews. I got 11 seeds at least! Other only got 9! I think the seed count needs to be up there under the price, not buried way down on the page. I will go elsewhere for my seeds. I think this is not trying to be "transparent" like the customer service email stated.

    Store owner replied: Hello Christa Risher. Thank you for your review. We are sorry to hear that the seed count in your Cool Wave Frost Pansy packet was disappointing, and we appreciate you sharing your feedback about how that information was displayed. Cool Wave Frost is a specialty pansy variety, and specialty cultivars can contain fewer seeds per packet than more common varieties because of the higher costs associated with producing and harvesting these unique genetics. These packets are sold by seed count rather than weight, and the expected quantity is provided in the product information. We also recently upgraded our website to make seed-count information more visible because we agree that customers should be able to easily find this information before purchasing. Most importantly, we want you to be happy with your experience. Our Customer Care team has reached out more than once to offer a courtesy resolution, but unfortunately, we haven't heard back. Please reply to either of our emails when you have a chance, and we'll be happy to help. We stand behind our products, and your seeds are also covered by our Grow Guarantee should you experience any concerns with germination.

    Like others in this comment section, I was very surprised to receive only 10 seeds in this packet, maybe fewer. Not sure how it can physically sow 80ft as the description suggests. Alas, I am hoping the average 1/5 review will deter the next purchaser!

    I have had great success with growing seeds using soil blocks, however none of these seeds sprouted. I bought two packets (20 seeds) which were expensive for seeds so I was very disappointed to say the least.

    There were so few seeds in the packet, there won't be much of a display even if 75% germinate. There were no more than 10 seeds in the packet. Maybe I missed that in the fine print.

    I wish I had read reviews first. I would never have ordered if I had known it was only going to be 9 seeds. Very disappointed.

    I share the previous review’s disappointment. It doesn’t say anywhere how many seeds are in a packet. Really disappointed to get 9 seeds only!

    It’s my fault for not looking close enough to see that the amount given is 10 seeds. Terrible return on investment to spend ~$6 on a pack of ten seeds when a pack of six flowering plants is $2. I ordered a pack of seeds from Outside Pride and got 250 seeds for the same price.
