As part of my gardening on a budget.....almost zero dollars I decided to grow geraniums from seed. I have tried in past overwintering in the house, did not work for me. So I purchased seeds from Walmart $2.29 for 13 seeds and 12 plants came up. Purchased two packages of $2.99 seeds from one of my favorite garden centres, only about 45% came up. They are in my kitchen window and doing well.
