I placed an order on July, 28, got the confirmation e-mail and since then neither I have received my order nor they have contacted me .....God forbid, they would issue a refund..... and it is not just a couple of pounds worth order but over 30!!!!
I had nothing else to do but to open a case at Paypal......

Has anyone had similar experiences?

Thank you

I bought some tomato seeds from this company and spent 5 months tending them and giving them a lot of attention and looking forward to the day when I could try this particular variety. Unfortunately I began to realize after a while that what was now growing in the greenhouse was not the variety I ordered. someone at plants of distinction had put the wrong seeds in the wrong packet. I had ordered Sioux and I grew some big orange tasteless tomatoes instead. I asked for an explanation, an apology and refund but my emails were ignored. I wont use this company again as I don't trust what they send is what I ordered.

I ordered several seed packets from Plants of Distinction for the first time this year, and I was not impressed. The selection of unusual plants and the lovely photos on the webpage tempted me but I was ultimately very disappointed. When they arrived there were very few seeds in each packet and the germination has been terrible. I may not be the greatest gardener in the world but I planted seeds from other companies at the same time in the same compost mix and they did just fine.

Very expensive, and out of 4 packets of seed. I have just two plants, and none of them is difficult to germinate.

Seeds of 3 products I received from swaps or purchased elsewhere after waiting weeks for the seeds to come through, have all germinated - so I don't think it is my methods.

On contacting the company I recieved a very off hand response, seeming to imply it was down to my methods, and they had no problems with their seeds!

I will certainly not be wasting my money here again.

two years in a row I had almost no germination. it could be the Agway where I bought them has held them for too long but I definitely had no luck.I wish I had. The plants look like they would be beautiful and quite unique. Seeds were expensive.
