Irresponsible seller, not sure how he manage his family members to make that many positive feedback. I tested out his nursery reputation by tried to order 2 citrangequat trees but they were out of stock, then I asked to order seeds. He agreed and stated to send out 40-50 citrangequat seeds for $10. He then contacted me to claim that citrangequat was nearly seedless, so he could only collect 15 seeds. I was so nice to agree with him for 15 instead of 40-50 seeds as he promised. It took very long to received the small package of 16 ridiculousy small and bad seeds covered in mold that I had to discard away to prevent the spread of mold in my house.

I contacted him and he responded back saying "you could have planted them anyway.. Im sure they would still germ even with the mold. I have planted molded citrus seeds many times in years past and they will still grow. If you can retrieve them from the trash. plant them anyway.. they should be fine. Sorry the post office took two weeks to deliver this package! Stan"

I know it is not worth it to do anything for $10, I was appreciated him very much until I finally figured it out that his nursery was so irresponsible. As a professional citrus grower, don't he know that mold pore could spread and became a problem the environment inside the house.

Never come back. I blocked his email as well.

I would like to remove this comment but it does not allow me to remove it; however, I already changed the feedback to positive.
I followed his advice and retrieved those seeds from the trash to test to see if they really can germinate as he claimed, and yes one seed did and mold spreaded all over the surface of the pot soil. The only seed germinated about 2 months ago and still survived til now though not very vigorous. I still wanted to appologize to Mr. Mckenzie about frustrated comment.
It finally not totally his fault, but in my opinion he should have washed the seeds thoroughly or treated with mild bleech before packing.

Anyway, just wantd to say "I am sorry".

I did not pay attention on his retaliating comment. Very disappointed for his un-professional action.

I had no control over the post office taking 2 weeks to deliver your package of seed. Naturally they would be molded after that long a period of time. I would have gladly refunded your money but you prefer to come on here and trash my reputation. I agree with your last statement. Never come back!"
