Positive | HNemerov (10 reviews) | On Dec 7, 2020, HNemerov Bastrop, TX wrote: I am a Certified Texas Master Gardener specializing in propagation, our Association's newsletter editor, and contribute research articles, too. I am cognizant that the majority of reviews are negative, which is why I was concerned about ordering from Park Seed. I was pleasantly surprised. Their seed packaging is among the best I've experienced. Their ordering and shipping processes were clear and transparent. Seeds arrived promptly. I sent two inquiries on how to best start seed and grow plants from their Echinacea 'Cheyenne Spirit' seed offering. I got helpful, concise responses from a knowledgeable horticulturist. In my experience, their sales and customer service are well above average, and I would order from Park Seed again. |

We are committed to working closely with our customers to resolve any service issues and will continue to focus our efforts on creating a positive experience.

Positive | Hawkster61 (3 reviews) | On May 14, 2020, Hawkster61 Rowley, MA wrote: I have ordered seeds from many vendors over the years and my experience with Parks seeds has always been good. The seed packaging in foil makes it easy to keep the seeds in once opened and the germination rated are always top notch. One example is the coneflowers I purchased where I had 100% germination which is very unusual for those plants in my experience. I will continue to use parks for my hard to find/germinate seeds! |

Slightly slower than i liked; however, they did indicate they were behind on shipping on their website. Order was shipped piecemeal which was better than waiting two extra weeks for all items.

Last Spring I ordered 3 bottles of Algoflash from Park Seed because they had the lowest price. When they arrived, one of the bottles had a broken seal and had leaked all over the others, even though they had been taped shut before being shipped. I was was more than disappointed. |

I assumed that it was coming in spring but it arrived TODAY! e are going through a frost spell but temps will be going up to the 70's, and my only dilemma is whether to keep it in a container in my garage or plant it with extreme protection, because it is GORGEOUS! I have a two year old Kathleen Harrop and want it to have company. While I question the wisdom of shipping it to me now, I cannot question the large size of this beautiful containerized, disease free rose! On October 19th, 2015, DonnaMack added the following: Hello Angela, I am happy to say that I contacted you by email last Friday and received a detailed written response the following business day (yesterday) from Steve, who not only gave me excellent advice on how to plant the rose but reminded me that I have a guarantee of replacement or refund through June 30 of next year. I am very pleased with my interaction with your company, and plan to do exactly as Steve advised. On March 30th, 2016, DonnaMack changed the rating from positive to negative and added the following: Well, I am afraid I spoke too soon. My Zephinrine Drouhin rose that was shipped, as I feared, at the wrong time for my zone died. I followed the instructions that the company (Steve, the horticulturalist) gave me, and followed them to the letter. But I was also assured that the rose was guaranteed through June of 2016. I emailed Steve, using the "reply to" address that he gave me. I did this on the 26th, receiving no response, repeated it on the 29th. I have received neither response nor acknowledgment. Worse, when I tried to email Angela, whose email is listed above, the email address appeared to go nowhere. It was a nice specimen, but I never plant roses in zone 5a in October. And now the lack of responsiveness is very disappointing, given that I have only reached the end of March. All of my other roses are doing very well. It seems a shame. On March 31st, 2016, DonnaMack changed the rating from negative to neutral and added the following: I would like to change my rating of this company, pending the ultimate resolution. Apparently Steve was out of town for several days, and was unable to respond, but Angela stepped up, and we just had a nice discussion. While Park does not have my rose this year, their sister company Jackson and Perkins does. She offered me either a large bareroot or a smaller containerized rose (not to have a choice!). She then credited my order back and used it to create an order at Jackson and Perkins. I thought this an incredibly good resolution (and Angela is a very nice person) and will update this entry once the rose is received. On May 4th, 2016, DonnaMack changed the rating from neutral to positive and added the following: I received the most beautiful replacement for my Zephirine Drouhin. I chose, as I noted above what Angela referred to as a smaller containerized rose (I meant to write that it was NICE to have a choice) but if this is smaller, what is large? I thought it quite large, and it is nicely branched and already leafed out. It was easy to plant, and now is on my south parkway. I also received ample notice of its impending arrival. Thank you Angela and Steve. You kept your promises. Making a mistake - we all do it. Making up with it so delightfully - that's hard to do. And it was done here.

Plants were actually bigger than I expected and were packaged well. Prices were great and bought them when they had free shipping sale. |

I ordered a Garden Sieve and received another product in error. I called Customer Service and she promptly took down the information, shipped me the correct item, telling me to just keep the wrong item rather then shipping it back to them. Now that's good honest customer service. It's what I would expect from a reputable company. |

So far everything has sprouted nicely and are creating leaves, except for the hardy cactus blend. I've never had much luck with germinating cacti; and it has only been ~2 weeks so far, but I figured I might get lucky with at least one early-ish sprouting cactus. Everything else; however, is going about as expected with 60-90% germination rates. |

On February 13th, 2015, jimbarg added the following: Once again, Park came through for me...I placed an order on Sunday night and received the ENTIRE order, with no backorders, on Thursday. Park is really getting its shipping house in order. Their prices are reasonable for most seed items, too (unlike a few other big names!). And, they offered free shipping on my $75 order and a 20% discount to boot! I will continue to use Park for all the seed varieties I need which they carry (and their selection is HUGE). I still don't see why there are so many negatives posted for Park...they have been nothing but good, reliable, and of highest quality for many many years with me. |
Positive | upstairsnun (3 reviews) | On Dec 2, 2014, upstairsnun Otego, NY wrote: Since they cater to Southern growers and I garden in Zone 4, I usually order just specialty seeds from Park: fun things I can't find elsewhere. I have followed them for years, watching the Park family squabble over their inheritance, not caring that their business was the livelihood for hundreds, if not thousands of families. Where others have turned their companies over to the employees, giving them a stake in their workplace and thus a reason to care (think King Arthur Flour; Johnnies Selected Seeds), they preferred to run their company into the ground, not even updating an antiquated and less than "transparent" bookkeeping system. |

Excellent germination on all seeds and prolific producers in the garden. Later, I received an email promotion "Free shipping on all seeds, 1 day only, no minimum order required," so I ordered several more packages of seeds I'd been wanting to grow. They arrived in 3 days and again, I got excellent germination from all of the seed except for one variety which was a cool weather vegetable I didn't expect to grow with summer coming on. I replanted those seeds in late August when the temperatures started cooling down and they're producing a nice harvest now in October. |

They were still alive and thriving and I planted them and they seem to be doing well. They arrived in a box surrounded in styrofoam peanuts.

This has included seeds and the Bio-Domes and their sponges. I haven't ordered any live plants (and probably won't, after reading the other comments). The seeds that I've started in the Bio-Domes have germinated very promptly. Based on other commenters' experiences, I'm a bit worried about how well they will transplant and whether the sponges will break down in the soil, but the initial results have looked good. Some fairly robust seedlings (Tithonia, Abutilon, and Asclepias) seem to be able to send roots down through the sponges and flourish. |

She was very apologetic and explained that my plants were being shipped from their Michigan facility in a few days. She said that if the plants arrived too late for me, they would gladly issue a full refund for the items. With that kind of customer support, I'll certainly continue to order from Park Seed Company in the future. |

I admit, I buy very few seeds; my patience isn't great. I do LOVE their SunPatiens, though! Every time I plant them I get loads of compliments and questions about finding impatiens that grow in the sun. They are expensive, probably too expensive, but they arrive very healthy and each plant is full and close to blooming. This year I added petunias, bacopa, & a few other items. They haven't arrived yet so I promise to update this if they arrive in anything other than stellar condition or if their customer service suddenly turns into a bunch of ogres. |

All seeds that I purchased from Park have been planted and nearly every single one has germinated (including the seed packets that had the "Packed for 2011" label covering the original label on the packet. The pansies I already moved outdoors are blooming like crazy. Most of my other seedlings are growing so fast that I have to keep putting them under additional grow lights so they can keep growing with plenty of room. Some really exceptional ones: Sunny Lady and Cherry Blush Impatiens, Big Begonias (all types - huge plants right now), Wizard Mix and Watermelon Coleus, Arizona Sun Blanket Flowers and all the tomatoes and peppers that I have started (all ready to go out now, but I still have to wait a couple of weeks). The only ones I didn't have much luck with were Delphiniums, but I never have any luck with them and thought I would give them one last chance. In summary, I have had great luck with Park seeds both this year and last. Now I just need to get them into the garden - this rainy springs is maddening! On May 6th, 2011, OHGardenGuy added the following: One last comment on this year's purchase. The cucumber seeds I didn't receive were replaced with another variety at no cost (I was not charged for my original cucumber seed order either). The variety I ordered apparently had a crop failure hence the replacement. Not bad out of 37 seeds packets ordered. And I appreciated the free seeds. On April 30th, 2012, OHGardenGuy added the following: I have had nothing be excellent luck with Pard Seeds. I placed my 2012 order in late December (40 packets of flowers and veggies) and received my complete order in a couple of week. My experience with germination rates has been at least 98%. I agree that I am not crazy about the way some packets have the current-year label placed over the previous year's "grown for" date. I still had the excellent germination rates, so I don't sweat that too much. My problem is that I tend to have too many plants to set out (and not enough room for them). On January 16th, 2013, OHGardenGuy added the following: I just received my seed order and seed starting materials for 2013 and as always, everything was received quickly and in order. I have always had great luck with germination rates and Park is my main seed source. Never had a bad experience yet. On February 11th, 2013, OHGardenGuy added the following: I must be ordering from a different Park Seed company as I have never had an issues with them. I always get my orders quickly and have always received email confirmations when they have shipped. I recently sowed the Park Whopper pansies I ordered and each and every seed germinated. I don't always have 100% germination rates, but it has always been darned close. I guess I should be thankful I haven't had any problems. |
