I planted these seeds in hanging baskets for my patio and they have filled out just beautifully! Thank you to Epic Gardening on You Tube to suggest these beauties! I planted four ganging baskets and they are all as gorgeous as the baskets posted! Amazing seeds! Don’t sleep on these! I am on the Gulf Coast Zone 9a!

Grow this every year and bring it inside before the first frost. It will survive another winter though not as pretty as the first. I love having the flowers in the winter. Relieves that winter groggy feeling!

- Denise E. S.Verified BuyerRated 5 out of 5 starsJul 31, 2026A favorite of mine.
I usually buy premade hanging baskets but this year my budget doesn’t allow for that. I thought I’d try planting my own and when I saw these multicolored Lobelia seeds I had to buy them. I planted a bit late but now, at the beginning of August, they are growing well and starting to bloom. I’m glad I bought a second package of these seeds so I can get an earlier start next year.

- Peky P.CA, United StatesVerified BuyerRated 1 out of 5 starsMay 9, 2026No luck with flowers!
First time trying to plant flowers from seeds. I had zero success. Nothing germinated. Seeds are also very tiny and I was surprised at how little seeds there was in this pack. I guess I'm used to the vegetable seeds that comes in a lot more. Not sure what went wrong..
