This compacted plant blooms heavily with bright red blossoms. Thrives in full sun, and makes a great border plant. Easy to grow from seed. They grow about 1 foot tall.
Just started growing this year
Grew from seeds and did absolutely wonderful. Just beautiful!! If you are starting some flowers from seeds I would highly recommend these!!
These seeds were sooo easy to start from seed and the color they bring in late summer all the way through fall helps with my lack of pungent color in the garden. They are so vibrant and my chickens never bother them:) win win!!!
I've had this in my flowerbed the whole season. Stunning red color. I wish it is a perennial but none the less it'll be a staple in the garden from here on out. The humming birds enjoy it very much. Flowers better in temps below 95 degrees and enjoys partial shade during the day. Germ rate was great. 6 out of 6 grew in a cube tray on a heat mat under a light and transplants very well.
Beautiful red blooms, hummingbirds love the flowers!
But only 2 seeds out of 30 seeds I planted indoors germinated. The only disappointing germination rate of all seeds I ordered this year from MIgardener.
My only complaint is that I was not prepared for how well and fast all of the seeds would grow soI had to pot up earlier than expected! I am very happy with all of the seeds I have purchased from here!
I think I got near perfect germination on these. Cauliflower has always been challenging for me to time it out and know when to harvest. I've been learning that crops that have purple or reds in them (looking at my red lettuce varieties and purple sprouting broccoli) seem to bolt less quickly than their green counterparts in heat.
I have been buying seeds from you for the last 3 years. They germinate very well, and have produced the best gardens I have ever had. I just got my order for this year started in my greenhouse. For the first time I opened a packet of All Seasons Cabbage and there were no seeds in it. the rest of the order is doing great. The price of the seeds also good.

This is my first year growing straw flower. The germination rate is fantastic and you get so many seeds. Can't wait till they can moved outdoors and bloom in my purple flower bed.
Everything but the royal paste sprouted. Sometimes that happens. Will place another order for fall planting.
