What customers say
Customers are enthusiastic about the potential of Kniphofia 'Flamenco' seeds to deliver spectacular, multi-colored flower spikes in vibrant reds, yellows, and oranges. The primary theme centers on the species' inherent difficulty when starting from seed. Experienced gardeners report good viability when using proper techniques like cold stratification. However, less experienced users often face frustration with slow or sporadic germination. Satisfaction hinges on patience; those who successfully establish the plants praise their robust growth and stunning, fiery color palette. The seed quality is rated highly, but the slower start means immediate satisfaction is often tempered by the learning curve required for this dramatic perennial.
