The Moon Garden Plant Collection arrived in record time and in perfect condition. The plants are larger than I expected and healthy and ready to grow. I will add to my comment once I see how well they do in my garden. |

I love this vine, its is a real twining vine. Even after my cat tried to eat half of this plant its still growing and healthy. Love it! I will order from this company again :) |

Positive | karetzkyj (2 reviews) | On Apr 4, 2013, karetzkyj San Francisco, CA wrote: The seeds I ordered arrived quickly and the company included a package of free seeds--much appreciated in the current economy. The company contacted me via email and phone regarding a plant that was unavailable so they try very hard to keep in contact. I would recommend this company. |

The person taking my order said she would check to see if any were left and include them in my order if I still wanted them. What a nice surprise to find them when my order came in. Great customer service! |

I fell in love with some of the plants in their catalog and splurged a bit, including many varieties and flower-types I had never grown before. |
Positive | GeorgiaRusso (1 review) | On Mar 14, 2013, GeorgiaRusso Castleton-on-Hudson, NY wrote: Select Seeds can always be depended upon to ship out awesome plants. In particular, they are the only ones I know of to ship out plants of Spanish Flag (Love Vine), which in Zone 4 or 5 does not really give seeds the time for flowers to enjoy. And they are spectacular. Select Seeds has the special and unique plants! |
Positive | pmcgarden (1 review) | On Feb 26, 2013, pmcgarden Buffalo, WY wrote: I love this company. The products are superior and the choice is great. I live where gardening time is short, so I rely on their excellent seeds and plants. The plants are so beautiful when they arrive, unlike a lot of other companies' plants and I love the choice of seeds. I can find the relatively rare Lauren's Grape Poppy seeds here which I have to treat as an annual in my zone. |

Positive | floradora (7 reviews) | On Jan 18, 2013, floradora Astoria, NY (Zone 7b) wrote: Was very pleased with the performance of the annuals seeds directly sowed into my garden last year. They had a great germination rate, which resulted in so many beautiful poppies, so of course I ordered seeds from them again this year. I received my order once again in a timely manner. I was so glad to see that they offer Wall Flower seeds which after having seen the blooms at the Brooklyn Botanical Garden looked high and low for. |

Positive | lisaaj (20 reviews) | On Jun 9, 2012, lisaaj Columbus, OH wrote: Select Seeds went above and beyond this year for me; when I submitted my order, I mentioned that I had hoped to order some seeds from the previous year's catalog, which were not listed in the 2012 catalog. They sent me all the seeds I had hoped to buy as bonus packets! Granted, they were last year's seeds, but I appreciate their efforts. Most of the following seeds that I ordered are blooming now in my garden; the rest are growing fine and will bloom later: "ruby moon" hyacinth bean, "Dawn Chorus" shirley poppy, "mother of pearl" shirley poppy, "magic roundabout" sunflower, "spring sparkle" Virginia stock, "Super Yoga Rose" zinnia, and "appleblossom chiffon" CA poppy. |

Select Seeds had the plants and shipped them right away. They arrived two days later packed beautifully with soil still damp. Plants are thriving. Plus the price was reasonable. |

Positive | sunshine196 (1 review) | On Apr 20, 2012, sunshine196 Marshfield, MO wrote: Emails about this order and the timingN of arrival were prompt and informative. The plants arrived as requested and were in very health robust condition. Packing is the best I have seen and I order frequently from nurseries. Carefully packed in holders to they would not move in the box or get broken each plant was topped with spagnum moss to keep it moist during shipment. |
Positive | dwc47 (14 reviews) | On Apr 19, 2012, dwc47 Chattanooga, TN (Zone 7b) wrote: I have not yet ordered seeds from them, but the plants I ordered were very healthy and packed so smartly that it looked like the work of an engineer. They have plants that you won't find anywhere else, and they are particularly strong in Salvias, which are my favorites. The Rudbeckia laciniata 'Golden Glow' is an old, old plant that I have not seen offered by any other vendor. This is a five star company. *****. |

Positive | alfmoz (2 reviews) | On Apr 19, 2012, alfmoz Washington, DC wrote: I started ordering from Select Seeds a few years ago because of the unusual selection of seeds and plants that they offer. I now look forward to the arrival of their catalogue every year in the dead of winter here in Washington, D.C. I make my selections, place my order with the preferred and appropriate delivery dates worked out with them. My order has just arrived (mid-April) and I'm thrilled with the quality and condition of the merchandise once again. I've ordered live plants from them and each time it's wonderful to see the care and effort made to pack everything so as to avoid as much damage as possible. They make sure that the plants are given enough moisture for their trip and this year someone took the time to wet newspaper, ball it up, and pack it so gently and carefully around the base of the stems that the plants all arrived well watered. And even with the damage that can be expected with mail deliveries, it's always a pleasant surprise to see the plants with only 1 or 2 bruised or crushed leaves which aren't detrimental to the plants at all. Our local garden centers could learn a lesson from Select Seeds and their customer service. I'm hooked. |

Positive | TBonewest (1 review) | On Mar 5, 2012, TBonewest GREENBRAE, CA wrote: I had a tremendous experience with Select Seeds. They just donated 500 seed packets to a children's Farm Day. My initial request had gotten misplaced but a rep called my house, asked if our need had been met and then personally ensured that free seeds had been delivered on a rush notice. |
Positive | Greenmidget (1 review) | On Feb 24, 2012, Greenmidget Stafford Springs, CT wrote: Last spring, I bought several potted flowering annuals that Select Seeds had donated to the Union Free Public Library for a fundraising event. I can unequivocally say that those plants were the healthiest I have bought to date. They all thrived in my garden and flowered through the first frost. The ones I kept in pots and brought inside the house - as recommended by the Select Seeds friendly staff - were flowering all through the Christmas Holidays: what a bonus! They are now overwintering in the basement and I eagerly look forward to taking them outside in the spring for another flower-filled year. Thank you, Select Seeds! |

Positive | wodesorel (1 review) | On May 13, 2011, wodesorel Columbiana County, OH (Zone 6a) wrote: This was my first time ordering from Select Seeds, and it was out of desperation as the normal companies I order from were out of the annuals and herbs I had been wanting very much. Even though I ordered later into the growing season (after my early Jan. orders had already been shipped) they still had everything in stock and it was processed and mailed in just over a week. Germination rates have been excellent, and the seedlings look beautiful and are now just waiting for the danger of frost to pass. There are a few more varieties that are waiting to be direct-sown and I'm looking forward to seeing how they fare, though I honestly have no worries. |
