Giant Sequoia | Tree Seed Grow Kit | The Jonsteen Company

This was the best kit (& only kit) for growing sequoias. I followed all instructions correctly and got three sprouts, out of 7 seeds! Keep in mind the success rate is about 15 to 20% germination rate. In the pictures it looks like two sprouts and that is correct, but when I went to get rid of the perlite (white pebbles) there was a little baby stem starting to come out of the seed! I have checked other reviews and they all seem to say only two sprouts appear, I guess I got lucky!

One of the seeds sprouted. It was precisely on time according to the instructions. Very excited to watch it grow.I’m not disappointed that none of the other seeds made it- I only wanted one seedling anyways.I was surprised at how little dirt and rocks came with the greenhouse. Also the lid doesn’t fit perfectly on top of the greenhouse. TBH, I’ve been highly suspicious from the start. But none of that matters because one of the seeds germinated! Five stars!

I find this product to be very misleading. They don't specify how many seeds you get. That's because you get 3-5. Never mind that *their* photograph shows at least 9-10 that I count. So if you are lucky, you *might* get 1 or 2 trees if everything goes well. I am confident that their very nice packaging costs far more than the actual seeds. If you have some potting soil or peat moss or coco coir and a baggy, don't waste your money on this kit. For the same money, you can get 40 seeds from their (much less misleading) competitors.When I called to get a refund, because I only got *4* seeds, they responded that 3-5 is what you get. Sorry/not sorry. If you want a cool round box, go ahead. If you want more seeds to get more actual trees, this is a complete waste of your money. I did not receive a refund despite the fact that I respectfully and politely registered my displeasure at their very misleading ad and product.

I had one of however many seeds sprout and she has been growing strong in her little mini greenhouse. But more importantly the customer service has been amazing because they responded to my question quickly gave me very helpful advice, with a few different inquiries and just such caring sweet responses with additional information as well. I've never grown anything or have kept any plants or flowers because when I have tried I've killed them and so extra nervous with this sweet strong resilient seedling and got great advice and encouragement from their customer service

Had to buy this after visiting King’s Canyon/Sequoia National Park. Two seeds sprouted. I’m hoping to grow them as bonsai since I don’t expect to live 3000 years to see them as true mature specimens.

I bought two of these kits and followed the instructions perfectly to a T on both, starting with one and then the other a few months later, and neither has sprouted after several months

Super fun to set up! Great for young ones:) I can not wait until she sprouts!!!

I planted these on February 22nd and today is April 6th and these little guys are growing strong. I followed the instructions exactly even though they seemed a little odd
