This is my first year as a lavender owner, but I’ve been addicted ever since. I own mature lavender plants from Lowe’s, Home Depot, etc. I loved them so much that I wanted to attempt growing from seed. I researched tips and tricks and as a beginner it was a tad complicated. But please DO NOT give up on these seeds! Luckily these are the only lavender seeds I’ve ever purchased and I will continue to buy more! First I live in hot and humid Houston. That already poses many challenges! I purchased these in July 2019. I tried sowing these every few weeks as they were not germinating. Come to find at the beginning it was my fault. First off, do not bury these seeds! The first couple of tries I sowed them half an inch to an inch. They never germinated. They were too deep and I also overwatered due to Houston’s high temp in summer. I left them outdoors and nothing. Along with the high heat I used regular potting or seed starting soil....also a mistake! They don’t like being compacted and the moisture that stays in that soil can rot the seeds. I’ve been continuously successful with potting soil and vermiculite or cactus soil mix and vermiculite. The one main tip is patience! I was extremely impatient with the initial tries. I forgot about a couple of pots I sowed a few weeks before...and sure enough they started to germinate. Eventually as Fall season started peaking in the seedlings have been so active! I started seedlings every week and depending on the weather, location, and water I had some seedlings even sprout in 7 days or less! They are all different and finicky so attempt a lot of trial and error. There were some that germinated in 3 weeks! Depending on the weather I have had some sprout in 6-8 weeks, be patient! The seeds they provide in these packets are more than enough to keep trying! Some grow faster than the others and some are duds. I always put more seeds than required b/c they don’t all germinate. Take a chance on these seed packets.

I tried these in 2 seasons with different dirt and conpost in ground and pots. They never sprouted.

Last year I bought these seeds. The package came with three variety: Vera(True English), Spike and Munstead. Vera and Spike sprouted fairly easily. Rate was about 50% on their own. 70% after cold stratification. Munstead didn’t sprout for me. The seedlings were very sturdy. 100% alive after transplanting. First year I got some flowers. The scent was nice. I planted them around my patio. I live in zone 5b. After a winter, all the Vera came back. None of the Spike did. With that said, I’m still pretty happy with the purchase. At least I found a variety that will survive our winter. Now I just need to replace all the dead Spike with Vera.

The packaging is simple and clean. As soon as you open the package, the smell is beautiful and full. Everything in the package was nicely labeled and sealed. The main package cover conceals the smell of the lavender. Lavender seems harder to germinate, and there are a lot of different ways to sow the seeds/ germinate. I had a very successful germination without cold stratification, but it was very slow. I did use a couple of germination methods and I am still waiting on the outcome. I will definitely purchase again and recommend to all of my fellow gardeners/planters.

Took a long time but they are finaly sprouting. Hope to transplant them to pots in a few weeks.

A few of the seeds germinated and started to grow. Unfortunately they stopped growing and died. I was sad. I LOVE lavender.

I was really excited to try growing these lavender seedlings, but unfortunately, they didn’t grow at all. I’ve successfully grown many flowers from seedlings in the past, and I definitely have a green thumb, so I’m not sure what went wrong. Out of the entire batch, only one seedling sprouted, which was disappointing. Perhaps these require very specific care, but compared to other seedlings I’ve grown, these fell short. If you’re an experienced gardener, you might have better luck, but in my case, they just didn’t perform as expected.
