Does sprout if placed on wet paper towel inside ziplock bag for 2 3 weeks.
Seeds arrived in sealed packaging. Seeds are sprouting so far. Have not fully grown yet to see if proper plant. Will post picture once fully grown. Gave 5 stars cause they sprouted but don't know yet if correct plant until grown, but did sprout.

Not Easy to Germinate but are Great if you do this...
I do not have a green thumb but following this advice gave me positive results with these seeds. These are very small, very hard seeds. My first attempt at germinating failed. I had tried my normal method of leaving on a plate in the sun between damp paper towels. Result: 0 (zero) seeds (out of 22) germinated. Luckily, I read the reviews here and saw one that I followed for a second attempt. Method: - Freeze seeds overnight - Soak for 24 hours after that. I did NOT put them back on the plate in the sun. I had purchased this ( https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0B6BB4TVC/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1 ) for germinating seeds and I had great success this time! I had 4 out of 5 of the growing 'pots' germinate using 3 seeds in each 'pot'. I have not tried germinating with the paper towel method again. This system and these seeds work great!

Very hardly after establishing it self!
Well mine can be cut back to the ground, an left outside after harvest, to speed through, it not blooming until second year, did it three times, in a row got 4foot high,stalks,with a couple hundred flowers, an each blommed,an the seeds collected. Getting ready to replant in yard,dug up in fall an it bloomed 3 times an harvest all leaves for tinctures.it Rocks, if your diligence is strong. Good luck

Best luck in cooler temperatures with lots of sunlight
I tried growing these in the summer indoors near a window to avoid the 120F+ temps outside and while they nearly all sprouted, they never grew much bigger than an inch or two and slowly started to wilt and die over a few months. I'm now another batch outdoors (same package of seeds) since it is fall and much cooler. The plants have much more access to sunlight and have been growing very strong and have already gotten much bigger in just a few weeks. Plants are good, just make sure you give them the adequate sunlight they require.

Seeds
Actually the seeds didn't come up but neither did the seeds from other herbs . I believe it was caused by a soil I used. Price was good. I will order again.
