Customer Reviews
I planted 2 seeds in 12 pods October 10th. 10 pods produced babies! Today is November 30th. Some are slower growing than others but you can see all my cuties here! And a picture of my most mature plant. I can't wait to see them keep growing!
I planted five pods worth of seeds in July and all of the plants are absolutely thriving. I’ve already given one away as a gift.
I planted my china doll seeds on July 12 2023 and they are looking good.
From packaging to seed quality they've surpassed my expectations! It's been about 2 weeks and I'm getting little sprouts already!
