this is not what the product is
They took so long to get to me, I forgot I ordered them. 4 months..... for some seeds that were just in an envelope. I've grown these seeds to flowering state, and the seeds I received were packaged as Leonotis leonorus but were in fact something completely different. It had purple pod shaped flowers like a pea flower. When I contacted the seller, I received no answer. This entire transaction has been the least satisfying online purchase I've ever made. I make online purchases at least once a week and have been for years. This is the least satisfied I've ever been

Great seeds, nepetifolia not leonorus
A grand majority germinated, and they flowered like two months after germing. The one that i really gave soace to grow grew into a beautiful monster, but it was klip dagga and not wild dagga... i'm satisfied enough that these seeds were easy to germ, grow, and even order.

Wish they were fresher
Did not sprout. I planted over 100 seeds and these are the only ones that did not take???? I did not get 50 seeds more like 30.

All plant very little flowers.
They grew just fine but they get about 3 feet high and don't have very big blossoms on them. I will probably plant something else that is a little showier.

Really not Lion's Tail - Small Foliage
Really isn't Lion's Tail. The leaves and flower aren't Lion's Tail. Plants got huge and the foliage isn't enough to make it worth it. Looks too much like very tall weeds.
