UPDATE/EDIT 8/29/15 - Nope... there was never even the slightest green nub. I waited, but no results.
UPDATE/EDIT 5/29/15 I can report that nothing has grown in the patch I planted these seeds in. Not so much as a sprout or bud. It's just dirt, so I'm taking my three star down to one. If something does grow I will come back and re-edit my review and adjust my star level up again.
Original Review 5/13/15
Wow, so small. 200 seeds is not a lot when the seeds are so microscopic. I get it that this is ground cover so that once it grows they will spread out, I already have a bunch of this growing that I transplanted from my mom's house, I guess in my mind I imagined a huge packet of seeds, I'd spread over a huge area they'd spring up and I'd be done with it and not have to keep stealing from my mom's patch. That does not seem not the case here.
Since these seeds are so tiny I mixed them with a bit of soil in a separate bowl, and then I spread them out over an area about 3 square feet. Do not do this on a day with ANY sort of wind, or your seeds may get blown away and you'd never know it. Once mixed in with dirt you can't see them. Then I watered them gently.
I will up my star rating if anything happens, I'll down my star rating if nothing happens... but I gotta give this a couple weeks at least. Since I already am aware of what this stuff is supposed to look like I know what to look for when it "sprouts".
Right now my word of advice is that if you know someone who has a patch of this growing is just borrow some from them, it's so hardy it transplants well at most times of the year. I was just trying to be kind to my mom because I have large areas I am trying to start this in and I felt like I was over taxing my mom's patches of it. I will revise if these seeds take off like gang busters, and then I'll be back for more seeds.
