Instant Flower Garden

I am eager to beautify the courtyard of the house we rent. I do not want to spend a ton of money on perennials and annuals that have already gone up, so I started with a ring around a tree in the yard with just the seeds and it was great working. The problem is that I live in the middle of nowhere and can not find seeds over, everyone has sold almost everything except the grass. So I was wondering if anyone here has used every instant Flower Garden and what were their experiences with it?

I tried using it once and have had only marginal success. All seeds are planted around the top of the sheet and you have no idea what is what. Some of these orders have increased, but you never looked like the picture on the box. I think you should make sure they stay moist (not wet) at any time and receive lots of sun. I do not know where you live, but I live in Wisconsin, and it would be awfully late to start with seeds. Try. In general, the Instant Flower Gardens are cheap to buy.

If you talk about these green leaves that can be cut to size, they do not work. I have tried in my garden one year. I followed the instructions carefully, and nothing happened. I suggest looking for seeds for next season.
Good luck.
