Question on seed vendor
Comments (6)I ordered a couple of packs of vegetable seeds from them last year because they were offering free shipping. The seeds were fine. They were Burpee retail packs and they were fresh. I wouldn't hesitate to purchase from them again but I only ordered a couple of things the first time around because I had never heard of them before. If I'm not mistaken I found them by googling "seeds free shipping". Does that give you a clue of how frugal (OK, cheap) I am? Mechele...See MoreVendors charges
Comments (5)I don't recall when Heirloom charges you, but they do let you add to your order whenever you want. I emailed them three times last year to add roses and had no problems. Palatine charges half when you order and half when it ships, but I was considering adding another rose and they were quite willing to help me do that. Ashdown is also good about combining orders or adding to an order with just an email. Wisconsin Roses and Roses Unlimited simply require a check before they'll ship, and you can send it when you want. The only company that I've ever had a problem adding to an order is Jackson and Perkins. I wanted to add a rose to my order after a shipping problem required replacing my original order, but was told I'd have to place a new order for the other rose I wanted....See MoreOT: shameless seed vendor recommendation, WildSeedFarms
Comments (8)I just received this catalog yesterday....looks pretty good, reasonable prices/shipping and pretty generous with most seeds! Mostly veggies and 16 pages of several herbs and flowers.

Comments (37)Is there any perfect seed company that has low seed prices, low shipping and handling, huge selection of varieties all in stock, both heirloom and hybrids, that accepts internet orders using a credit card and ship within a day with no **** No, there is no such perfect company that will offer every OP or hybrid that you might want, that takes phone orders or credit cards and ships within a day or two, that has low seed prices and low shipping costs and has great customer service I'll add. I think it's a matter of you deciding what's most important to you. Is it variety selection? Is it what you call low cost shipping, low seed prices, etc. I don't know of anyone who buys tomato seed from just one company so if I were you I think I'd reveiw some of the companies that have been suggested to you and after checking them out chose however many places might meet your needs, on a priority basis re all the criteria you mentioned.
