Default Favorite seed catalogs

The user review is good. Also that it explains which companies own which
catalogs. I didn't know parks owns wayside for example.


My favorites for seed:
Parks & Burpee for flowers with a slight edge to Burpee in the consistent
quality department; Burpee, Shepherds & Johnny's for vegetables. Johnny's
puts the germination rate on the envelope so you have a better idea how many
to sow.

I also ordered some plants from Parks and they were well packaged and
healthy.

What's your favorite seed catalog? Any to avoid?


Go to

catalog companies.


Parks, Johnny's, Pinetree, Nichols, Shepherds. Burpee. And others.

Best to present the ones you're considering and ask which are duds.
