GBI will never again do business with PARK SEED! I will never do business with this company again! They advertised a pack of 3 bareroot milkweed plants, which I ordered months ago, and I ended up receiving only one plant. No communication about it, nothing. It took 2 emails to customer service for them to finally respond, and when they did the answer was "sorry, they're sold out so here's a partial refund". This has happened to me before with this company, which I chalked up to an honest mistake, but enough. No more business with Park Seed - BUYER BEWARE!!

GBTerrible germination rate. I am an experienced gardener. I have a greenhouse and start almost everything from seed every year. I bought many different vegetable and herbs seeds from Parks this year. The germination was horrible. Some packs did not germinate at all. Seriously 0% germination. Others had a germination rate of 20% - 50%. I planted some year old banana pepper seeds from a different company and had near 100% germination. That same day I planted a pack of new Parks bell pepper seeds and only one seed germinated. There is no date on the seed packets. The horrible germination causes me to suspect that I received old seeds.

GBThey were very awesome I am extremely pleased with my experience at Park Seed. The way they wrapped the live plants was truly fantastic, leaving me feeling refreshed and impressed by the attention to detail. The packaging was not only practical but also aesthetically pleasing, adding a touch of beauty to the unboxing experience.

GBOne of the worst companies I have ever… One of the worst companies I have ever dealt with. First, I placed an order with a Visa gift card. There were no issues and I received a shipping confirmation. 3 days later I received a call and email saying the order didn't process and that they need a new credit card for payment. I essentially said no, because it seemed very shady and the order was showing as pending on the card. They also over charged me be $1.02. After arguing about this with customer service (Janice) I said cancel the order I don't want it. They told me to write return to sender on the box and ship it back (which I did). I don't know why they didn't send a return address label (very unprofessional). Now today I checked my card and it was fully processed. SO, they took my money, had me ship back their product and essentially stole from me.

GBBad seed quality & selectively publishing reviews I ordered different seeds from them and the overall germination rate was very poor. The worst ones were the super sugar snap peas: out of 30+ seeds planted, roughly 80% ended up rotting. The ones that ended up germinating looked weakly and eventually died off. In contrast, I also bought snap seeds from two other companies and the germination rate was 100% & speedy. This means that the issue was with the seeds specifically ordered from Park Seeds. I submitted a review on their website and I'm more than certain they will not be posting it publicly. I only see 5-star reviews for all their products, with several years apart.
