I am experimenting with winter sowing this year and I've been purchasing many different types of seeds from various vendors in preparation. I purchased Kochia Scoparia Grass and I received the seeds within 5 business days which was great. The seeds were neatly packed with thorough planting instructions. The seller included contact information. No problems, will definitely purchase from Rob's Rare Seeds again.

Update: Well that is not a very nice comment and I don't appreciate it, Kokomojewel. I'm just a regular gardener and I only wrote of my own experience. Rawr. I've ordered a bunch of seeds from several companies and I will be writing reviews on all of them as (1) I receive the seeds and (2) germination rates next spring/summer. Thank you for the shoutout.

Kokomojewel, I agree with you in regards to purchasing from verified/vetted sellers. On my own behalf, I took a risk and purchased 1 pack of seeds from this seller for $1.65, about half the reviews for this product were good, and another half poor. I knew that going into the purchase. I find joy in experimenting and I decided that for myself, purchasing this pack of seeds was worth it for the sheer fun of trying to grow them in my winter sowing project. I have only purchased large seed orders from vendors on this website that have been vetted.

So for me the jury is out on this seller. As I stated previously, the seeds arrived quickly and were labeled, the seller had included his name and contact information. At this time I have no reason to not give this seller a positive review. But I thank you and appreciate the concern, and if next spring the seeds do not germinate, I will update my review accordingly. Best.

It turns out that my seeds did not germinate. Which means that it's either the seeds or it's an error on my part when planting. Hmm.
