Wow it germinated in just a few days! I soaked the seeds for a short time (less than an hour) and then placed in a baggy with some soil from Home Depot (supposed to be for palms).  I was surprised to see the little green sprout in the baggy today, just 5 days later.  I noticed a second seed that sprouted but wasn't green yet.  Moved them to a pot and have a plastic bag over the pot to assure moisture remains.  Wish me luck.

This germinates extremely well! I waited till I was absolutely certain that these turned out well before writing this review. I've read a few reviews saying they weren't satisfied and I was skeptical at first too. I am from Canada and it's was extremely cold outside, so I had planted the seeds indoors around late November. I submerged the seeds in normal temperature water for 24 hours before planting them in the soil. I prepared the soil by taking 2-3 egg shells and blending them so it's a powdery consistency and then evenly mixing it into the potting soil. I also added a little bit of coffee ground mixed evenly in the egg shell potting soil mixture. Then I planted the seeds in the soil, not too deep! I kept a close eye on it and made sure to keep the soil moist and damp everyday and kept the plant where there was full to part sun exposure. It takes a lot of patience! After 2/3 weeks, they started to germinate and I had leaves coming out. My gardenias have grown really big and healthy now.
NOTE: It's extremely important to keep the soil moist! These gardenias are extremely sensitive and therefore, it's really important that they get full/part sun exposure and that their soil is kept moist at all times. They will die if they aren't receiving enough sunlight and if their soil isn't kept moist.

It's definitely worth buying these! It's cheaper buying the seeds here and planting them, rather than buying the live plant itself. Plus, they do germinate and grow out to be well. So no complaints. Happy gardening!!! :)

I love this thing!! Sometimes I just watch it in a creepy way!..lol But my sprouts sprouted or started to sprout in a day, don't know if it's because of my climate or not. I do think the drainage holes are a tiny bit small but it's not an issue. I honestly think 2 Cups of water as directed are too much so I just reduced it to 1. I'll update once I have a full crop.

Great price. Germinated in only a few days; unusual for begonia. Extra seed was included and germination was very good. They were larger than any other "begonia" seed I've planted and not coated. Grew very fast for a "begonia". Most begonias I've grown take weeks to germinate and more weeks to become very plant looking. It is a prostrate plant with vines and multiple leaflets. Looks like clover or alfalfa to me. I have over 600 total from this source, in cells, growing and I"m going to dump all of them. Not a lot of money involved but a lot of time and effort. Not only did I get fooled but so did Amazon.

Absolutely loved this little grow light.  My seeds sprouted much quicker than they have in the past!  I was using a much larger setup (and more expensive) and somehow this little guy managed to get much better results!  The only minor detail about it is the adjustment can take some getting used to (the rope slides at times), but it's an easy fix.  Setup was very easy and delivery was prompt.  I am considering upgrading to the larger version!

This lightbulb is pretty amazing. I live in new England so I can't have a garden all year round. I do like having fresh herbs so I figured I would give this light bulb a chance. I wanted to kick start my herb/veggie garden. I had some pea shoots and wheat grass. They germinated right away I couldn't believe it! The light bulb itself has a lot of weight to it. It's give off a soft purple hue of light. You aren't suppose to expose your plants to this light 24/7, well it's not ideal.

*I received this product at a discounted price for my honest and unbiased review*

Received the package just the other day I'm hopeful that the germination will be as productive as labeled I will update my review next year!!!!

Though I didn't originally purchase the seed thru Amazon, I will be ordering a new batch from here. I have a lot of people wanting seed for this once they see it in bloom. THis plant is amazing. I wasn't familiar with this plant and was amazed by how fast it grew and how big and beautiful the blooms are! It's gorgeous. A really impressive plant. I confess I thought about pulling it up when it first came up--it was kind of ugly. But those blooms-WOW! It's definately something I'm going to make a permanent part of my garden.

I can't believe how well this grew. It took a few days longer to sprout than I thought, but once it did, it won't stop! I'd take the advice of a fellow reviewer (that I read after the fact), take some soil out, but the seeds in, then put the rest of the soil on top. Too many of my seeds ended up just resting on top of the soil. The cats are still unsure about it, but I'm sure they'll come around.

Germinated in three days with proper watering. Will update with the end results. Too early to tell.

I planted these nine days ago and seventy are now growing. I did not expect so many to germinate, but we are very excited. They need about a twenty degree difference from night to day, and a lot of indirect light. I placed a heating lamp  three feet above the seeds during the day, and mist them several times a day. They are receiving ten hours of light a day. I did not plant the seeds, I just dropped them into the center of the container containing a medium orchid potting mix and some charcoal I added.

This was the first Nature's Blossom kit I had ever purchased. I took a chance trying it out since it had a low number of reviews and I had bad luck with another company's kit in the past (didn't germinate). I have been pleasently suprised so far. It has been a little over two weeks and 3 of the 4 have sprouted. The other is just peeking out a tiny from the soil. I'm so happy they came up :) Remember Bonsai germinate a bit slower than plants you may be used to. Be patient with them and they are rewarding.

I put down some of this in my north facing front yard in late November in Northern California.  The area where this is further from the house (and less in shade) took about 12 days to germinate.  The part that's shaded by the house is just barely germinating at 3-4 weeks.  This part only gets about an hour sun at this time of the year because the neighbors roof shadows this area.  We'll see if those get a chance to set themselves up as winter rolls in.  Watered twice daily for two weeks (worried what the neighbors would say here in droughtland), and then down to once a day, and then let mother nature take over now that it's raining.  We did encounter 30's mornings during the first week, and then more like 40's mornings (mid 50's days the whole 2 weeks), and I was hoping they wouldnt be impacted by the 30's because they hadn't germinated yet..  Minus 1 because it is quite expensive, so really only good for patch jobs.  I'll need more in spring, and will probably try the smartseed and try to take advantage of el nino.

I have tried growing Lavender from seeds around 5 years ago, which is the only option in my area, no seedlings neither shrubs. I bought three different packets but had never grown! So last time I asked my bro to get me David's when he got back home. I decided to make an experiment. I got three small ziploc bags and filled them with little moisten soil. I put each company's separately. Then as instructed, I have put them in the fridge for 3 weeks and just now I have took them out. I am amazed! David's seeds have already sprouted in the ref! I have just planted them in seeds cells. Looking forward to their growth!
Thank you!

This sprouted very fast in a Jiffy Pot on my window sill! After about a week
I have transferred to 2gallon SmartPots. I look forward to harvest!
