Found Bow Seeds for the first time this year at Sunnyside in Calgary. Great prices with massive seed counts. Germination rates were excellent for everything I purchased. They will be my first choice next year.

I have been pleasantly surprised by the vast amount of seeds that actually germinated from all of the Bow Seed packages I have purchased. From Sun Flowers, to Summer Cypresses, to Viola, they all seemed to sprout up and grow vigorously. I have tried various other seed manufactures, but haven't had as much success.

The seeds are priced very reasonably. I have so many early bloomer plants thanks to Bow Seed, that I am going to half to give away half of them. I have no more room left in my house for them. I honestly wasn’t expecting such success this early on in the year.

I haven’t tried their mail order, since I live in Alberta and can pick them up easily at any major garden center. I’d highly recommend them if you want seeds that actually germinate!

I have purchased seeds from several companies and have yet to have any equal the germination and production that I got from this company. The whole idea of growing is success,and with this catalogue I always have good sucess.

I have never used them for mail order as I am from Alberta and their products were widely available everywhere. I will say that this has been a family-owned business for many years and that every seed they sell is test-grown or developed in their own fields and germination tested at their facilities before it is marketed. The hardiness ratings are based on their location (Zone 3), so you can rest assured that just about anything you get from them will perform within stated limits. I was always very satisfied with the quality of their products.
