Very positive experience with Onalee's Seeds. I bought seeds for Jatropha podagrica back in 2017. The order was for two sets of 4 seeds, and I received at least 2 extra seeds. All the seeds germinated, and 9 of the plants are still alive today. I am delighted to say that the past year they started blooming! Growing in zone 6b, outside for the summers and lose all leaves and sit dormant in the window over winters.

Wow! Way to have patience! I'm so glad you've been able to keep them going up there in Canada. They grow and bloom quickly here in Florida, but it takes skill to get them blooming up there! Great job!

How Onalee's is not a nationally-known company that is clamored for in each garden center is beyond my understanding. I have never seen such *detail* on the packets of seeds I received in 2 days despite paying standard shipping. The speed is impressive but the pixel quality of cotyledons on the packet is second to none. I deeply appreciate the guidance in germinating the tropical plants of such high quality. Can't wait to shop next year!

I am so happy with my purchase from Onalee! The item arrived quickly and was well package; the seeds germinated in just a few days and the plants are now growing gorgeously! There was plenty of helpful information included for my specific seeds/plants, and even a photo of what the sprouts look like. Very professional and I am so glad to have found this small company. I will definitely purchase from Onalee Seeds again! Thank you so much Onalee!

Posted on February 27, 2010, updated June 26, 2021 An absolutely perfect trsnsaction from start to finish. Onalee's sets a high standard that other mail order dealers should be judged by, and I'm sorry to say very few are at this exalted level. Website is endlessly fascinating and well worth returning to. I'm gushing! But she is so worth it!!


On June 26th, 2021, dave12122 added the following: I placed a recent order with Onalee for 2 Plumeria cuttings. Imagine my surprise when Onalee included two EXTRA CUTTINGS FREE OF CHARGE!! and two of them were branched, another nice plus. The planting instructions for the cuttings was three pages, the most thorough I have seen. A GRAND SLAM HOME RUN BY ONALEE!!! THANK YOU FOR YOUR CONSISTENTLY OUTSTANDING SERVICE!!

I ordered some Celosia seed this year and was very impressed with the detailed instructions on how to grow them. It's been years since I started seeds inside under a gro-light, and she gave excellent advice on that subject as well as the standard outdoor growing advice. The seeds germinated just fine.

It was a pleasure ordering from Onalee! Her web site sells plants that we have seen at botanical gardens, but have been unable to purchase locally. We appreciated the fast delivery, careful packing and the link to her "gardenguides" with info about the bulbs we ordered. We are looking forward to planting the Pine Cone Ginger bulbs and would definitely order from Onalee again!

My purchases from Onalees Seeds have been wonderful. Onalee has been very helpful in recommending seed varieties that will fill my needs. Such plants that will survive the 120 degree heat that we can have in Phoenix AZ. Each seed packet has the planting info on it so that one will have success in growing it. For instance the info on one of the seeds that I ordered said that it is a flowering annual that can grow as large as a small tree. That means it needs a special location with space. Onalees Seeds is a great source for seeds. I will continue to order from Onalee.

Onalee's is a great place to order Japanese morning seed packets online. The selection is great, with an easy to navigate website with prompt notice of your purchase. Seeds are quickly & properly packed & shipped. One packet from Japan, even had a plastic label inside, showing the bloom, & can be helpful to identify the cultivar, from others you may grow. (As, marker pen labels may fade, fast... ) I would definitely buy from Onalee again, as she is kind, helpful , courteous & efficient in al these aspects . Also, for the great variety, quality service, response to emails & reasonable shipping prices, for some very unique imported Ipomoea nil seeds, to satisfy any specialized gardener.

I recently ordered a Crinum jagus from Onalee Seeds. The order came quickly and was packed very well. I am a horticulturist and have ordered from many companies over the years. I also worked at a mail order nursery and and was always trying to watch our quality and how orders were being shipped out. So a well packed plant that arrives in great shape is something I look for and as I said, they did a great job. Also the plant was large and healthy. They also have good planting instructions for the plant. I would definitely buy from them again.

I ordered some - very difficult to obtain - giant Crinum Asiaticum seeds on 9th Oct. 2017. Onalee must've posted them very quickly as the package arrived only 9 days later, having travelled right across the Atlantic to here in the UK, including the usual delays at customs etc. The large, walnut-sized seeds look wonderful too: healthy, firm and fresh, with some of them already sprouting! The packaging was just perfect, and despite charging only $12 for S&H I noted from the postage details on the padded envelope that Onalee paid over $21 in postage alone, ie not including the cost of packing materials, packaging time, filling out export forms and going to the post office. The paperwork and information provided is second to none, giving website details of the best sources of planting and care information, as well as places where one can share one's buying experience. This is by far the best way of helping gardeners as it would be impractical to try to include so much information for every different seed or plant when it is all readily available online. Being a bit techno-baffled I wouldn't normally have the patience to sign up for a website like this one just to leave some feedback, but I wanted to thank Onalee for all her kind efforts and care. I would heartily recommend you visiting her marvellous, friendly site, full of enticing, hard-to-find goodies!
