I would have never believed there was such a difference in the seeds purchased from different places. But you've made a believer of me!
Thanks for a great product.

Delivery was quick and the product was in perfect condition. The germination rate was fantastic for both varieties (95%+) much better than I am used to from other seed suppliers. Thank you for the good service, product and price.
