Did well

Did well, but took a while to grow to full size.

Thin and week spouting beyond germinated stage - did not develop.

I purchased the red leaf amaranth along with tomato and pepper seeds, and planted them a little over two months ago. While some did germinate, they haven’t progressed beyond the sprouting stage. The seedlings remain thin and underdeveloped, despite consistent care. I still have some seeds left and plan to try again next spring, hoping for better results with a fresh start.

Good germination

Good germination. It thrives in full sun, but the leaves get tough, even the new young ones. The ones I planted in dapple sun/ shade are slow growing, but the leaves are more tender.

Fast, love the photos on packaging

Very much appreciate the sale prices, care, and quick delivery from the team.

I keep reordering more seeds because we have had unusual, destructive flash floods that keep washing my garden away.

We've had depressing, stressful, dangerous weather - but somehow getting a package of seeds so nice and colorful from MIgardener is like getting a package of hope for the future. Thanks team!
