This is one of my main vegetable seed companies because of good selection, old varieties, easy website & reasonable shipping (plus good fall sale). Everything reasonable & as expected.

I have been buying from Victory for a few years with no problems, until a few weeks ago. I received the package, but it contained someone else’s order. I immediately contacted Victory, and they responded with an apology a few minutes later. 3 days later I received my correct order. Excellent customer service!!!!!!! BTW, always have good germination and packaging is very good. Prices fair. Thanks!

Love this seed company! Because I have grown plants commercially for 25 years and buy in large quantity, I depend on my seed vendors to supply top quality seeds. I buy only from companies with outstanding service and excellent seeds. Victory Seeds is now #1 of the top 3 most reliable seed companies I buy from. Superior germination, great packaging, fast shipping, competitive pricing. The larger, easy-opening packets make it easy for my employees to access and sow the seeds -- fast and efficient. The plastic enclosure for seeds shows me immediately how many seeds I have in stock. Just can't go wrong with these guys; Victory has been around a long time for a really good reason.

I was searching for some seeds and came across Victory Seed Company. Prices are excellent! After looking through their website, I made a purchase of seeds of different varieties. I bought some heirloom seeds as I like growing different types of items in my garden, and also put the extras out for others to try. I received the seeds with no issues, and I like the bigger packets as I can handle them better. I cannot wait to get them planted! Some seeds will have to wait for Spring, but that is OK with me as it is something to look forward to during the Winter planning the Spring Garden of veggies! Their shipping costs are very reasonable, and the shipping time was great, very fast. Totally satisfied with my purchases and will buy from them again!

I have been a long time gardener, but poor health precluded me gardening for the last 3 years. This year I was finally able to get started again. Not being able to wait I went through old seeds from years past just to get started again. Victory Seeds, packaged for 2018 and 2019, which had not been properly stored, gave me a 60-70 % germination rate. Victory seeds has long been my go to seed source and will continue to be so as I continue with my 2022 seeds.

I started using this company because they support the dwarf tomato project. This is a new type of tomatoes and not easily found. The owner adds new ones each year the the project releases them. Then I started buying all my seeds there. They notify you when they are delivered. I definitely recommend them. They are mainly where I buy seeds.

2nd year of ordering most of our garden from VictorySeeds and appreciate the quality service, VERY well done packaging with instructions and moisture control inner bags and the mission and devotion to open pollination varieties that WORK. The biggest surprise... the celery seed varieties changed our appreciation of what "fresh" flavors mean with veggies beyond all others after growing organically in the southeast heat with LOTS of compost and a bit of afternoon shade. And I have a new favorite VictorySeeds hat that will have to compete with my Deere sun hat for favorite gardening SWAG this summer... Keep 'em growing... Victory!

I'm a new gardener just starting out and I placed my order w/ Victory Seeds. Their selection and pricing are very good. I mentioned in the checkout comments that I was new and really liked their selection of seeds. When I received my order they included a hand written note recommending that I try to learn as much as I could and gave me the webgrower.com site as a starting place on my new gardening path. Little things like this are really appreciated and I'll definitely be coming back for more as I ramp up!

On Oct 6, 2021, gousa (2 reviews) from Newkirk, OK

This was a pole bean trial. 2 were this year's seeds from VS. 1st planting-neither came up. 2nd planting-Riggins' Stick came up, Potomac never did. The other seeds trialed came up (even some that were older) in very hot summer weather, around 95 degrees days, same conditions for all. We have gardened for about 40 years. Contacted Mike a few times by email with pictures of trial. I thought a replacement would be fair. He just told me how wonderful his seeds were and said he would try to find out what happened since nobody else had this problem with that batch. There was NO guarantee or replacement offered. I have used VS for several years and have never had this problem. There are many other seed companies I have used that are excellent at standing behind their seeds or plants. Fast shipping and good variety selection doesn't make up for poor product that is unusable.

Hello Christi,

I am confused as to why you posted this negative review since I have been responding to your emails during your whole "trial," and been trying to help you figure out what has been going on. I want folks to be successful in their gardens.

As a long-time gardener, you know that part of the fun is experimenting, growing our skills, and trying to out-guess what nature throws at us each year. As I explained to you in our emails, sowing beans in the hottest time of the year in your area can definitely have a negative effect on germination. I hope that the "Effects of Soil Temperature on Germination" chart link I sent you will be useful to you in the future.

As you pointed out above, when you re-sowed the 'Riggins' Stick' beans, they germinated fine. This illustrates how a few days difference and even the slightest changes in growing conditions can affect germination, as well as offer verification that there was nothing wrong with the seeds.

In regards to the trouble that you had with 'Potomac', you did not ask for a replacement. You specifically asked, "... for a credit for the Potomac seeds so I can replace the defective seeds." I promptly refunded the credit card that you used to make the purchase. If you check your card's statement, you will find it. (I also just emailed you a copy of the return receipt)

I hope that this clears up your issues and that you will consider correcting this negative posting.

Thank you again for helping to support our biodiversity preservation work with your orders, we hope that you have bountiful harvests, and we look forward to being of service to you in the future.

I am extremely pleased with this company's responsiveness to my inquiry about my seed order and their follow-up to a problem caused by the USPS. Their "order shipped" email included a USPS tracking number. When it looked like the package was delivered in Portland OR, (not my shipping address), I contacted the company by email. Mike responded soon after and followed up with the Post Office. Mike was prompt about getting to the bottom of the problem and communicating with me about it. The USPS had mis-marked the package as delivered when it was really still in transit. I received the package the very next day. Despite the fact that my order was tiny (a few dollars), he treated my situation as though it was a top priority. What excellent customer service!! I will certainly be ordering from Victory Seed Company again.

I have been a customer for a few years now and have never been disappointed. Ordering is easy, shipping is fast and quality is top notch. I have excellent germination, growth and production from every seed packet I have received and from seeds I have saved. I am also a big fan of The Dwarf Tomato Project. Tiny Tim is in my grow box every year and I add new dwarf varieties each season. I like not having to harvest off of 8 foot plants and the quality, production, and taste are just as good if not better then those larger plants. I recommend your company to anyone who asks me where to purchase seeds from.

I ordered a lot of vegetable seeds from another company in February, which were to ship early March. Then mid-March. Then late March. Then mid-April. Then in early April I found they were shipping the seeds late May. The plants should be in the ground before that. Went back to a couple of companies I've used in the past and they either didn't have what I wanted or were sold out. Went to look at Dave's Garden recommendations and found Victory Seeds, who I've never heard of. They had most of what I wanted and reasonable substitutes for the others at OK prices. I placed an order on Monday. Tuesday got an acknowledgement. Wednesday told they'd shipped. Today, Thursday, they arrived at lunchtime. The other company told me that they had their multiple-month delay because of Covid. Clearly from Victory's performance that is not a valid excuse. I will return and update on how the wee plants come up but at the moment I am very impressed.

On Mar 20, 2018, memphogreen (1 reviews) from Memphis, TN

I ordered seeds last year in February. I started the tomato and eggplant indoors; in general, they germinated almost 100%, and within 12 days. (I am a new gardener, so my terms may not be accurate!) The Tiny Tim tomato plants produced well, were about the dize of a dime and had a wonderful flavor. The eggplant produced small, delicious fruit, although I only got 4-5 out of two plants. I am not sure if that is normal, or if it was a problem with my soil/weather, what have you. This year, I used the same seeds from last year (having stored them in the fridge in tupperware), and I started tomato and eggplant again indoors; so far, all the tomato seeds have germinated after 10 days in the potting soil. I anticipate good returns again. These seeds are absolutely of a high quality, with hardly a dud in any of my packets. Once I run out, I will absolutely be purchasing seeds again from Victory.

I cannot say enough good things about Victory Seed Co. My first order was placed on a Sunday night (8/6/2017) and I requested that it be sent by USPS 1st class mail. Well was I ever surprised when it was in my mailbox the following Wednesday, 8/9. The seeds were perfectly packaged and the packets themselves had excellent instructions and information. I have total confidence that these seeds are going to perform wonderfully and beat any taste test around. A side note is that I exchanged a few emails with Mike Dunton (the great grandson of the company's founder) regarding 'how to' and then moving on to this, that, and the other. Not something I would expect from most businesses. Very personable and friendly. Now really. How could anyone ask for more?

We grew from seed for the first time last year and were a little nervous about the process. We wanted non-gmo, organic, clean seeds and Victory seemed like a great fit. I love that they are a small, family owned farm and they grow all their own seeds. The selection was excellent, we got a prompt receipt of our order, and the seeds were shipped quickly with a nice note. We over-planted the seeds certain we'd have first-year hiccups. Everything took! We wound up with 30 tomato plants (Amish paste and brandywine) and they all did amazing. Huge, healthy, and high yielding! My only complaint is I nearly got heat exhaustion trying to can them all in the August heat. We planted other seeds as well (cucumbers, peppers, melons) and they all did fantastic. We're sticking with Victory from now on!

Posted on March 3, 2016, updated December 12, 2016 Posted on January 13, 2016, updated March 3, 2016 I had never bought from this company before, but looking at the ratings here, I was pretty confident they were worth doing business with. Are they surely are! This company has a lot of the new Dwarf tomato seeds I have been looking for. There are 13 varieties that I placed in my order online, but before I hit the place the order button, I have a question about this type of tomato, so I emailed the company, and got a answer back in my email with a in depth detail answer, in less than 3 hours. Very impressive, especially during this busy time of year. I placed my order and it was in my mailbox 7 days later. Great service, great prices and fast shipping. Victory Seeds - hats off to you, for doing a great job! I will be placing plant of orders with you in the future!


On March 3rd, 2016, MVIsland added the following: In January I ordered quite a few varieties of the "dwarf tomato" seeds from this company. I started all of them about 8 days ago.....well, they are ALL up and running! The germination rate is excellent. I dropped 2 seeds in every cell, and both seeds germinated. I have over 400 tomato seeds under grow lights, just waiting for another couple of weeks, before they go out into the greenhouse for another month, then into the garden they go. I am thrilled with Victory Seeds. So glad I found them. I hope Victory Seeds has a banner year for their seeds. They deserve it! With so many negative comments showing up in watchdog from other gardening companies, it is refreshing to know there is a company that really stands behind what they do. It saddens me that so many gardeners are getting burned by so many companies. If I could leave just one word about Victory Seed Company, it would be " AWESOME"

Thank you so much for taking the time to leave a detailed description of your purchasing experience with us. I think that reviews like yours really help gardeners make informed decisions and form the basis of our primary method of "advertising" . . . word-of-mouth.

As a bit of a disclaimer, as you pointed out it is our busy season and as a small organization, I wear a lot of hats here. So although I try to reply to emails, CRM messages and various social media questions quickly, I can at times be a bit slower responding than you experienced.

I have ordered from Victory Seed Company numerous times, and never had a problem. This time, however, the friendly folks at the Post Office saw fit to lose my order, one which was time-sensitive for planting. I emailed the folks at Victory Seed and they promptly tracked the shipment and sent me the tracking number. For some reason, our friends at the Post Office seemed less than enthusiastic when I contacted them. In the meantime, Victory Seeds had duplicated my order and shipped it, with instructions to me to refuse the first order if it should ever show up ( which it hasn't yet). Long story short, I got the seed in time to plant it due to the proactive folks at Victory Seed. I will continue to do business with these folks, and will probably order from them exclusively from now on. Great doing business with them!

I ordered from Victory based on excellent testimonials around the Internet and their excellent number of dwarf varieties, particularly those from the Dwarf Tomato Project. Despite the numerous places to buy Cherokee Purple seed, I chose to buy from Victory because I felt more confident that they would take good care to make sure their original sources of seed were reliable and true to type. I placed an order for several tomato varieties in March. Shipping was very reasonably priced, and delivery time was in line with other seed companies, with no delays despite it being the busy season. Germination rates were excellent. The only thing I could wish is that the shipping would be trackable. But despite the lack of this convenience, the shopping experience was completely satisfactory. Victory will be one of my preferred sources for seed.

Thank you so much for the kind and detailed review that you left for us here at the Garden Watchdog.

Thank you also for your "wish." As a mission-driven organization, we actually do listen to our customer's suggestions and try and accommodate them whenever possible.

Since we are using the USPS, even the smallest, First Class packages are coded with a tracking number so the ability to track is there. It is just a matter of getting the postage system talking to the shopping cart system and then the tracking information could be automatically inserted into the email that we send out when the order is mailed.

I love the suggestion and this summer while working on a planned web site revamp, I will see if I can pull this off too :)

Thank you again for your kind review and for helping to support our seed variety preservation work with your orders. Both are greatly appreciated.

Best of Gardening Success to You!

I purchased 2 packages of Glass Gem Indian Corn from Victory Seeds. There is a good amount of kernels in each package, and they're pretty, which indicates to me the ears I grow will be pretty. The shipping was quick. Overall I'm happy with my transaction with Victory Seeds.

Posted on March 4, 2015, updated February 17, 2016 Posted on February 7, 2015, updated March 4, 2015 Posted on February 6, 2015, updated February 7, 2015 I have never ordered from this company, but was thrilled with how quickly they sent the seeds. Many people think well of this company, so I am looking forward to growing the seeds. I was disappointed that they were already out of some seeds I wanted (Mexico Midget) but I am glad they have a waiting list.


On February 7th, 2015, Lilyhazen added the following: MIke, I did click on the waiting list for 3-4 items. I am keeping my fingers crossed! Keep up the good work, and thanks for replying so quickly!
On March 4th, 2015, Lilyhazen added the following: Got a notice that one of the items I wanted was now available, so I ordered and got it quickly. I really appreciate that! If I could make one suggestion--if someone orders something after being on the wait list, it would be nice if the price of shipping (which is great) could be reduced a bit. Getting one packet is doubled in price by the shipping cost. Still, a great company!
On February 17th, 2016, Lilyhazen added the following: This company is amazing! I ordered February 9 and received the seed on the 12th? Were ya'll standing outside my mailbox? I was very pleased with last year's seeds. They did very well, even though I was away from my garden for 5 weeks with open heart surgery! My neighbors jumped right in and did their best to keep up with everything. Thanks for your fine company!

Hello Lilyhazen,

Thank you for taking the time to write the nice comment. Since we know it is "that time of year" and that the seeds won't be staying in their packets very long once they are in your hands, we do work hard to get folks' orders out as quickly as we can. Thank you for noticing that.

Regarding out of stock items . . . if you look on the variety's product page, when it is out of stock there is a button that is available that allows you to add yourself to the "Waiting List" for that item. When I get it back into stock, you are sent an automated email letting you know.

The reason that I mention that is often, we are not really out of stock, it is just that the system thinks we are an one of us has to review inventory and update the cart. We do this daily.

Thank you again for choosing to garden with Victory Seeds® and for helping to support our seed variety preservation work with your order!

Hi Josully,

We do try really hard, even during this busy time of the gardening year, to get folks' seeds to them as quickly as possible.

As a lifelong gardener, I certainly remember what it was like to mail order my seeds only to have a company take weeks to fulfill my order.

When I founded the Victory Seed Company, I did not want us to be like that :) Thank you for noticing and sharing your experience with other gardeners here on the Garden Watch Dog.

We look forward to being your seed source!

I ordered seeds from Victory last year and also this year. I have just received my seeds for this year. I do container gardening in earthboxes. I absolutely am wild about the Dwarf Tomato Project seeds, perfect for my use. I had my seeds in a matter of days after ordering.

I met Mike at the 2015 Mother Earth News fair in Oregon. I was impressed by how down-to-earth the company felt. You can tell that everyone who works there has a special blood sweat and tears bond with the company and the gardening way of life. I made my first order through them last fall. I was pleased with the results. I some of my seed for some experiments in the greenhouse, and everything came up happy and strong. I have written a full review on my blog, you can see it here //www.simpleground.com/blog/victory-seed-company-a-little-known-gem

I was looking for heirloom seeds and found this company on Dave's Garden. I orders several different types of parsley as well as flower seeds. They arrived promptly.
