EDIT My initial review (below) I will leave unchanged. I planted these seeds (indoors) according to the instructions on the packet and I am happy to report that in a little over a week I am seeing several dozen green shoots appearing. I can safely say now that germination appears to have been a success and in a very short time. Naturally, a few more weeks will need to pass for these baby plants to establish themselves a little more but I don't envisage any problems at all with future growth. First Review: A basic pack of (allegedly) 1,000 pepermint herb seeds. There is a good use-by date (over a year on the pack I received). The seeds themselves are kept inside a small, sealed packet inside. Although the description says there are 1,000 seeds in the packet, when I poured them out I have to say I was quite dubious that the quantity was that many. I have planted them now (indoors) and will await germination. Since I only need enough for a couple of pots, I will be satisfied if I get enough plants for that purpose but it will be a few weeks before I see any results. At the moment, I can only say this pack of seeds appears to be similar to most other packs of seeds. Considering my own needs for this pack, I will wait for germination. If everything goes as expected then I will be pleased otherwise I will revisit this review in a few months time. For the moment, all seems to be okay - plus, the price of the pack was competitive, so nothing to complain about there.
