Negative | rmtrout (2 reviews) | On Apr 26, 2013, rmtrout Hopatcong, NJ wrote: Ordered two Echinacea Pink Double Delight plants. Paid approx 11.50 each with a discount and had free shipping. For the price, I expected decent sized plants. Plants are very, very small. Very small. They are in 4" containers and one is about 1 1/2" tall and about 3" in circumference. The second is half that size. Packaging was almost non-existent. One container was completely emptied within the box and the plant out of the container. Did I mention that the shipping box has large holes so the dirt which emptied out of the container was also coming out of the box? It looks like both plants were recently repotted into the containers that they were shipped in as the one plant that fell completely out had it's roots in a compact ball. I am certain with TLC I can get the smaller, tramatized plant to grow, but I shouldn't have to. I should be receiving plants in beautiful condition, yes? I am re-doing a bed and have ordered from many places the past few weeks. This is the first situation I have had like this. On Apr 26, 2013, Burpee (W.

Negative | maranser (1 review) | On Apr 13, 2013, maranser pittsburgh, United States wrote: Every year Burpee gets worse! I always tried to figure out a way to take the blame for something I may have done to account for Burpee's poor seed germination and this year answered the question. I planted 8 different kinds of peppers, all in the same seed flat. After a few weeks in the germination incubator, my problem was answered. 7 out of the 8 had the usual Burpee germination rate=2 sprouts out of 20 on average. Every year thier seed packs get smaller(wieght by millionth of a gram now!) and the germination drops another 10 % down to where now only 10 % is the germ. rate. The bad part of that was the one pack out of the eight had over 90% germ. rate in the same flat/enviroment as the others. The Patio Pleaser Peppers had the same germination as my own saved seeds-over 90%. It's pretty bad when Burpee's makes themselves look bad when comparing thier own seeds with each other. I have seeds that are over 15 years old that are NOT Burpee's that have better germ. rates then the 7 out 8 seed packs. I figure Burpee's seeds must be well over twenty years old to be so close to the edge of non-germination besides being brown/black in seed color. If only Burpee would of tested the Patio Pleasers and seen that they out perform by ten fold thier other seeds, they shouldn't of sold them so to have nothing good to compare to. Most of Burpee seeds are raised over seas and few are from the U.S.A. I would love to grow Burpee seeds here in the U.S.A. but the problem is that they too would out-perform thier other seeds and make the rest look bad like the Patio Pleasers did. I was ok when I was only able to compare Burpee's bad seeds with all the other bad seeds of thiers in the past years, and I would of been better off if I never would of got a good seed of theirs to make the rest look so bad and realize its not something wrong that I've been doing.

The package was for 50 mg. weight but only contained five seeds. Emailed company concerning disappointment with quantity of seeds in packet. Was told their prices are determined by costs and no offer of compensation made. Dissatisfied with answer I called company and asked to talk to person in authority. That person was the one who answered my email. Again went through spill about costs involved and that since I got five plants up from the five seeds planted I should be satisfied with the 100% germination and that Burpee seeds were superior to other sellers seeds so price was justified. Was told that their catalog had package of thirty seeds selling for $6.50. Looked up on internet and they're listed for $3.95/30 seeds. Asked for refund of price or coupon for another pack of seeds. Would like to see if all retail packages only had five seeds but was refused any compensation. Again told their seeds were superior to others. I've been gardening a long time and know this is not the case. Will never buy Burpee seeds again, either retail or catalog. Apparently customer satisfaction has no priority with them.

My birthday is coming up so I thought I'd order a few of their (ridiculously high priced) raspberry bushes. When I went to check out, the message I was given was that I would not finalize my order until all was well. Well, there was no place to enter the discount code, but I kept on going, relying on the promise,and found I'd checked out without the 20 percent off. |

On July 26, I had not received the seeds, so I logged onto the site to check the order status. The website indicated that the order had not yet shipped, so I called Burpee for more information. I was told they were doing inventory in the warehouse, but it was nearly complete and the seeds would ship that same day. The next day (July 27), I logged onto the site to check the status again. Still, the site indicated that the order had not shipped. Beginning to get nervous about my fall planting schedule, I called Burpee again. Once again, I was told the seeds would ship "today". The following Monday, July 30, I logged on to the site to find the same message ("Order not yet shipped"). I figured maybe it just hadn't updated, so I would wait another day. On Tuesday, July 31, I logged in again to find the same message. |

They arrived after a week in transit in two boxes taped together. There were three 6-packs in each box. Unfortunately, in each box one 6-pack had tipped over and spilled both plants and soil mix. The stems were broken and the roots were beginning to dry out. Most of the remaining plants had been pruned, as an enclosed note pointed out, "to better handle the rigors of shipping". Of the 36 plants, only one was intact. I called Burpee right away to complain and was told to wait a day or two and then assess the damage. I did that and then emailed them. A got a quick response asking if I wanted a refund or replacement. I asked for a replacement. Burpee responded that they had no more Lisianthus so I would get a refund. |

Burpee products are guaranteed for one year from the date of purchase. Our records show you had placed an order for the potatoes in the year 2010. The order had shipped in early May of 2010. I could not find an order that was placed last year. May I have the order number? We would gladly honor the guarantee for the 2011 order. Potatoes are cool weather plants. They may be set out 2 weeks prior to the last expected spring frost, when the ground is dry enough to work. Our records show that you live in zone 4. The average last frost date for zone 4 is early June. Do you plant the potatoes in a different location? If so, that address could be listed as the shipping address and the order would ship at the appropriate time for planting in that area. Please be assured that we do want our customers to have a positive experience with our service and products. Respectfully, Marsha Customer Service Department I replied: Hi Marsha, Thanks for replying. I can't find the order number. I live in zone 5, according to our county's extension office. Our last frost date is either May 15 or May 21 depending on where in the county we live. I live in town, so I usually go with May 15. I plant potatoes well before that, in April, and keep them covered with dirt until the beginning of May. I also start them sprouting indoors two weeks before I plant them out, so it wouldn't be unusual for me to start sprouting them the first week in April, esp. if they are an early variety. Here is the Wisconsin extension office's fact sheet about potatoes that also say to start the early ones sprouting in early April, even for zone 4. fyi.uwex.edu/farmersmarkets/files/2009/06/potato.pdf I usually grow Yukon golds and blue potatoes, both early varieties. Getting them in late May around here means planting them in 80 + degree temps most years, and they just don't grow when they are started in that heat. Thanks again for responding to my review. I may order from your company again when I need seeds, but since it appears you ship rather late in the season for me, I wouldn't order time sensitive items. Antonia ---- I am happy that they are willing to honor their guarantee, but I probably will not be ordering potatoes from them again. |

Every time we ordered a set of something (grape vines come in sets of two, for instance) one plant was thriving and the other was dead. Even replacements have arrived dead. Customer Service at the store was non-existent. No one could answer basic questions about the plants or the products. I don't even buy their seed packs from the local stores. Too expensive and the seeds don't do any better than other less expensive brands. Bye, Bye, Burpee . . . |
Negative | trishrobinson (1 review) | On Jul 11, 2011, trishrobinson Old River-Winfree, TX wrote: I ordered tomato and pepper plants this year and had a horrible experience. Both sets of plants arrived dead or dying, and I emailed Burpee and they said they would send out a replacement order immediately. It took over 2 weeks to get replacement plants, which also arrived shriveled and some were dead. I planted the ones that had a bit of life left but they ended up dying too. I emailed Burpee again and told them what had happened but never got a response. I didn't want any replacement plants anyway because it was too late at that point to transplant anything and the heat would have killed anything new. I won't ever order plants from them again. They just can't survive the shipping and packaging. |
Negative | russ9673 (10 reviews) | On May 24, 2011, russ9673 Denver, CO wrote: I have tried to remain positive about my experiences with Burpee, but I have to say that this year has succeeded in turning me off. When I placed my order in January I was told that all seeds were in stock and would be shipped out as soon as possible. When the order arrived 3 weeks later, 3 of the 9 seeds were not included. I called to inquire and was told that they were sold out and would ship when available. All three of these were things I did not need right away so I thought it was no big deal. Those three seed packets arrived May 10 - 3 months later. I emailed several times and was told that "they will ship soon." I guess soon is a relative concept. One of the three seeds that I was waiting on was a yellow squash. When the packet arrived I saw that there was a white sticker on the bottom of the packet with the "packed for season 2011" info on it. Out of curiousity I peeled it off to see that the date underneath was actually 2010. I called and was told that they occasionally have left over packets and those are used in following years. This sounded ok until I planted them. Out of 12 seeds started in the greenhouse on May 11, 2 have come up. I suspect that these seeds were in fact packed in 2010. I will never order from Burpee again. |

I received my plants today, minus the horseradish. The whole reason I went with Burpee is to get horseradish in the ground. When I placed my order on April 29 there was horseradish in stock but as it took Burpee so long to send my order apparently they are now out of stock. I am very disappointed. I will now have to scramble around and try to find some horseradish to plant and hopefully someone will have it in stock. As for my "live plants" the hollyhocks are close to dead (yellow leaves and dried and dead leaves on all six of them), even the yarrow has a few yellow leaves. The daylillies are packaged quite well and I am hopeful for them. So, overall Burpee's has failed miserably. |

This year, I found some Burpee seeds at Wal-mart and Lowes. I purchased them without hesitation. Most seed did not germinate and others produced maybe 1-2 seedlings. Last year, I was successful at growing Coreopsis from Burpee seed that was 2 years old. But, as I said earlier, Burpee seed purchased this year produced disappointing results. I don't know if Burpee purchased from retail outlets is of a lesser quality than that purchased from their catalog. Several emails, and promises of replacement seed or subsitutions if my seed was not available, have resulted in no outcomes. |

So, I planted all the seeds I had remaining in the package and only a few seeds grew. I emailed Burpee and they sent me a new package of bush beans, which I planted to fill in the empty spaces in my rows, and still only maybe 15% came up and those that did were spindly and deformed-looking. This year, I ordered a different kind of bush bean, thinking maybe I’d have better results, but still, very few of the seeds I planted came up. The same with the corn seeds I planted this year, only about 30% of those seeds came up. So next year I will buy my seeds somewhere else. I don’t understand what has happened to Burpee, since I have ordered from them for years and never had a problem. But after 2 years of frustration with their seeds, it’s time to move on. |

I contacted Burpee who told me that some plants had been mislabeled and that the mistake would not be repeated in 2010. Wrong. My first "Sun Gold" tomatoes are ripening up. On one plant the tomatoes were identical to the mislabeled plants of last year, golf-ball size, red and bland. On ANOTHER Sun Gold plant, however, I've got a huge green tomatoes about 4" from top to bottom. (!) What in the world is going on with that company! I'm not spending hard-earned money and tenderly taking care of the plants for months only to discover that they are the wrong variety - AND completely inedible to boot. Would greatly appreciate a GOOD source for the terrific Sun Gold tomato plants if anyone knows of one. |

I got the seed, planted it, put it on the heat like I do all of my seeds...not ONE marigold came up. Other marigolds from another company came up 100%. I was a professional nurseryman for years and know how to plant a marigold seed! In talking to other people on another garden site they all had horror stories to tell about this company in the last two years. This will be the very last time I order from them and according to a lot of my friends it is their last time too. I spend too much money on plants and seeds in a year to mess with a company that doesn't believe in quality and customer service. |

My seeds finally arrived on 3/19 (7-10 business days....right.) and on my invoice it says "(netting) cancelled due to item not being in stock". Thanks burpee for sending me an $11 packet of seeds and wasting 3 weeks of my time while I waited for my trellis that was never in stock to begin with. To this day, their site still shows the netting as being "in stock". Ridiculous. I will never order anything from them again. |
