    Customer photo review of Celosia Seeds - Plumosa Lilliput Kewpie Mix

    These were my first order from Eden Brothers, and I am not the least bit disappointed. They came in so thick I had to thin. Every one was transplanted and they are doing good too. They are still small but the colors are already visible and amazing.

    I purchased this seed hoping I’d have a bunch of cute, little celosia plants to line borders and dress containers. Instead, these grew much taller than the description, forcing me to stake them. Upwards of 2 feet; a far cry from 8 inches. They were beautiful and had great germination, but not at all as I was looking for, based on the description.

    Store owner replied: Hello Suz. Thank you for your review of Eden Brothers! We greatly appreciate you bringing this to our attention. It's so important to have feedback like this so we can continually improve our products and planting tips. This variety is bred to be dwarf, but in some cases, environmental factors like low light, wide spacing, or excess nitrogen can cause etiolation, where plants grow taller and more leggy than intended. After speaking with our Customer Service Team, it seems we were able to share this information and offer you a resolution you were happy with. Thanks for your time in sharing your experience with us!
