I ordered these back in 2024, before I knew any better. Ribes (currant genera) have small seeds as shown. Whatever these seeds were, they were not Ribes at all. The shape is completely wrong. And they never germinated. The strawberry seeds did not grow either.

I spent about $16 on fake seeds.

Of course it’s not just about having fake seeds. It’s all the time you spend stratifying and then germinating.

Get your seed from reputable shops. Yes, sometimes sites like Alplains require you to give your card number over the phone or fax 📠 but don’t shop for convenience.
