They ship fast, their prices are reasonable, their descriptions are accurate and selection satisfactory and impressive. They provide directions with each seed you buy and are very straight forward with their business. They sell seeds! Great germination rate as well. I love this place. Highly recommended! THANKS SOLANA!! |

Their website is very modest but has thorough descriptions of the products. Shipping was timely, customer service great, and prices very acceptable. The seeds came in a little zipped plastic bag inside a brown envelope.(Oh, and the instructions are in French! But I'm guessing if you're ordering from them, you're already a seasoned gardener and don't need to know how many mm deep to plant the seeds!) |
Positive | Lalo79 (2 reviews) | On Mar 4, 2016, Lalo79 Kensington, NY wrote: I found their catalog to be very interesting and has a lot of hard to find selections (Jaltomato, Huauzontle, various Physalis varieties and more). I have started sowing indoors some of the seeds I received earlier this year and have had excellent germination rates. Highly recommended seed source for those gardeners looking to grow the unique and hard to find. |

Their selection of Physalis (ground cherry/tomatillo) varieties in particular is unmatched by any place I've seen. |

When germination of 2 packages was not as expected I did write and let them know. They offered advice.No replacement or refund. However, I would and have still bought from them. The paper enveloppes have printed instructions on them and inside them the seeds are mostly also packaged in a small plastic bag. |

Positive | Bordo (3 reviews) | On Jul 12, 2008, Bordo McLean, VA (Zone 6b) wrote: It was a real pleasure to work with this company. They have a great variety of seeds, and the seeds that I grew this year all had an excellent germination rate. When I was ordering seeds, I noticed a problem on the website, and I sent an email the the company. An hour or two later, they sent my a very nice email apologizing for the inconvenience and it was fixed. Some of the best costumer service I have ever had. Definitely will buy from Solana again. |

I made a mistake in entering the address, and was able to email them and correct that problem right away. Great service, kind people, excellent seeds. |
Positive | andycdn (1 review) | On Mar 22, 2007, andycdn Ottawa, ON (Zone 5a) wrote: This is my second year ordering from this Canadian company. Last year's seeds were extremely successful: heirloom tomatoes germinated 100% and rave reviews from everyone who grew them (myself included). This year I'm ordering those and a few more to try. Prices very reasonable and shipping is fast and inexpensive. The online catalogue is simple to use and comprehensive. Pay attention when they say 'recommended'! |

Positive | Windchyme (7 reviews) | On Jun 29, 2005, Windchyme Stockton, CA wrote: I ordered some seeds and made out a check before I realized that the prices were in Canadian so I over paid, my bad. Then I emailed to make arrangements so that wouldn't be an issue (maybe order a couple more packs and the change extra they could keep) and they never got back to me. No, they havn't cashed the check but they could at least have gotten back to me on the order and whether or not they were going to fill it. They still have the check. I entered these in my personal seed catalog and seeing they apparently are not interested in my order I had to go through and pull them off. Kind of a hassle. On June 30th, 2005, Windchyme changed the rating from neutral to positive and added the following: I got the seeds today and it was postmarked 6-22-05. I ordered these on 6-1-05. In any case they sent extra seeds to make up the exchange rate difference. Some I really didn't want but some I am very appreciative of. I wish they would have gotten back to me and given me the chance to pick what other seeds I wanted. In any case the seeds are here and all is good. Gotta go RE-ENTER them in my personal seed catalog. |
Positive | dirtdiver (5 reviews) | On Apr 20, 2005, dirtdiver Evanston, IL wrote: A very nice selection of out-of-the-ordinary tomatoes and varied exotic other things. Not a huge seed list, but full of temptations nonetheless. Attentive customer service (they responded to my e-mailed questions) and prompt delivery. No problems with germination. And it was fun trying to read the French version before the English translation appeared. On March 3rd, 2009, dirtdiver added the following: I've been ordering from Solana most of the last few years, and I'm always pleased with the selection and service. Glad that they now take PayPal. This year, as in the others, they've shipped promptly, and I appreciate the very reasonable shipping fee. I'm smacking my forehead wondering how it is that I forgot to order the Supershmelz kohlrabi I wanted, but I'm excited about everything else in the envelope. |
