GBSatisfaction and Admiration- A Park success! My purchases go back to the 1970’s when I had a beginners garden! Park Seed Company was the only company I used. More recently after retirement I have the time to “play in the dirt” - like a kid in the proverbial “sand box!” I enjoy browsing through the Park catalogue and have wishful thoughts of growing so many of the beautiful flowers and vegetables. I have never been disappointed with the quality of seed and the outcome produced. Park Seed is a highly reliable and customer oriented company!

GBI placed an order with Park Seed on… I placed an order with Park Seed on April 3rd for 4-100 3” Jiffy pots for a total of 400 pots. Total came to about $62.97 including $13.00 in shipping. Today I received an email saying my package was delivered “at front door” in Brooklyn, NY via UPS. I live in Oregon. So I’ve tried calling the company many times and no one answers the phone. I’ve emailed and no response. I’ve now submitted a fraud complaint with my bank and I’ll also submit a complaint with the FBI IC3 department for internet crime complaint. It’s ridiculous how many businesses are running scam internet sites

GBLong-term customer, mostly good experience I have been a Park Seed customer for well over a decade and have experienced mostly favorable results. They offer a wide variety--that is what keeps me coming back--that and habit, I guess. I like buying smaller amounts of a wide variety of seeds because storing them long-term does compromise germination rates, but the tradeoff is higher price per seed. In one order a couple of years ago, I discovered that the bell peppers seeds I paid for did not arrive, and contacting the company got me nowhere. Other than that I have always received what I ordered, so I just wrote off the loss and ordered seeds again from them the next year.

GBI will never again do business with PARK SEED! I will never do business with this company again! They advertised a pack of 3 bareroot milkweed plants, which I ordered months ago, and I ended up receiving only one plant. No communication about it, nothing. It took 2 emails to customer service for them to finally respond, and when they did the answer was "sorry, they're sold out so here's a partial refund". This has happened to me before with this company, which I chalked up to an honest mistake, but enough. No more business with Park Seed - BUYER BEWARE!!

GBTerrible germination rate. I am an experienced gardener. I have a greenhouse and start almost everything from seed every year. I bought many different vegetable and herbs seeds from Parks this year. The germination was horrible. Some packs did not germinate at all. Seriously 0% germination. Others had a germination rate of 20% - 50%. I planted some year old banana pepper seeds from a different company and had near 100% germination. That same day I planted a pack of new Parks bell pepper seeds and only one seed germinated. There is no date on the seed packets. The horrible germination causes me to suspect that I received old seeds.
