What Our Customers Say
5
“Fun to Open”
I opened the box on the porch and went through the packets one by one. Every label has the variety name, and the Chioggia beets are the first thing I sowed.
5
“Very Pleased!”
My order arrived in three days, well packed, with every packet labeled. I messaged support about shipping to my state and got an answer the same day. The box fits on my potting shelf, so the leftover packets stay in one place until I need them.
5
“Good Value”
I wanted unusual tomatoes and got Cherokee Purple and Black Krim, plus beans and melons I had never grown. At under two dollars a variety, the 20 box is a fair price.

Step 2Read the Label
Every label shows the variety name, the sowing depth and the spacing. Follow it for each packet you open.

My Neighbors Keep Asking
Every packet in the box had a name I had never seen at a garden center. I started with the Cherokee Purples, and the tomatoes came in a deep purple-red. Friends keep asking where I found them.
Beautiful Dragon Tongue Beans
I bought the box for the Dragon Tongue beans and they did not disappoint. Yellow pods with purple stripes, all the way up the trellis. The packet told me how deep to sow and I followed it exactly.
Our Weekend Project
We sowed the glass gem corn together in spring and my daughter checked the bed every Saturday. The ears came in pink, blue and orange. The labels made it easy for her to help.
