Only 1 of 9 seed types produced blooms even close to claimed color and appearance. The zinnias were pitiful puny blooms with awful, absolutely incorrect coloring as claimed.

I ordered a variety of veggie and herb seeds this spring and had a great success rate with my starts. I would absolutely order from then again. My seeds arrived quickly and everything was well labeled.

I bought Forget-Me-Not seeds that they specifically advertised as Myosotis alpestris. When they bloomed, they were all the much weedier, less enjoyable Myosotis arvensis. That, I could live with. I pulled them all up before they could go to seed, I’ll get seeds elsewhere for next year—disappointing, but it happens. However, they have suppressed my review setting out my experience, instead emailing me to offer store credit. I don’t care about the money; I care that they’re claiming to be selling one species but actually providing a much lesser one, and hiding that fact. Unfortunately, I think this suggests they have no intention of selling the correct species, and don’t want anyone to know they have it wrong.

This company is a joke. I pre-ordered (1) Jumbo Black Diamond Elephant Ear Bulb on 12/18/22 and paid $30.19 with free shipping. This company sends me multiple nonsense coupons everyday but failed to send me a shipping confirmation as promised. I don’t walk well so I don’t check the mailbox everyday. The bulb was delivered a day ago. It has been sitting outside in freezing temperatures and is now DEAD. What’s worse is that it should be approximately 7” - 9” in Circumference. This bulb is just over 2 1/8” from one end to the other. This what I get after this company holds on to my money for (4) months with free shipping. Last year I tried ordering the same bulb and they sent me a standard green bulb instead. After 2 years….I have yet to get what I paid for and ordered. This company posts pictures of the approximate bulb size which is about the size of baseballs. I am not asking for perfection but close should count. The bulb that they sent me is light years away in size. This is an absolute INSULT !!! I am done with Eden Brothers. It’s too bad that Trust Pilot does not offer pictures. You would have a heart attack if you saw what I received.

If they put as much effort into getting stock out as they do advertising, things would run much smoother. Their customer service is always canned BS replies until you go back and forth a couple times. Well over half of my orders have been cancelled because they sold me things they couldn't get. I was told recently told that the bulbs I was ordering were currently shipping to my zone. It's been about 2 weeks and they haven't shipped. My guess is I'll get an email telling me they don't have those either like they did with all the caladiums. It's spring and I have nearly nothing to plant because of them. To their credit, the black iris and tiger lily's did pretty good. Unfortunately that 2 of about a dozen bulbs that I bought that they could actually send.

I've been buying seeds for the last 5 yrs. I love wildflowers and had no problem until this spring when I noticed a plant (found out it was primrose later) that took over half an area and popped up all over my yard. I notified them that they should notify people of the invasive nature of some of thir seeds mixed into a package of 25 different seeds...their answer you should be aware that they notify you that maybe invasive; which ones? That's up to you to researchers one before purchase. An appropriate response would be "we'll make more efforts to identify or remove highly invasive seeds. FLIPPIT ANSWER = NO MORE PURCHASES

I purchased 10 bulbs from Eden Brothers. The bulbs were delivered in January in the middle of winter. I just went to plant them and three of the 10 bulbs were bad. I reached out and asked for a credit or a refund and they told me because I didn’t plant them within a month that that was their only guarantee. Pretty lame given that you don’t really plant bulbs in the middle of winter. Pretty bad customer service. And a failure rate of 30%. Won’t be buying from them again.

Eden Brothers have high quality seeds, bulbs and fertilizer. My garden has bloomed in brilliant colors. Their gardening 101 class is awesome with great tips and procedures and easy to understand for a brown thumb like me. My final chance at gardening made me a winner as far as making my flower garden amazing. Thanks Eden Brothers. Also, when I didn’t receive my order, they quickly send a replacement. Eden Brothers you have exemplary on line service, I will continue to use and recommend to all of my gardener friends. PS…A small suggestion, when giving codes for % off or coupons, add it to your check out page. Have a spot for codes given for the day. I had a difficult time cut and pasting codes from home page to checkout page. Then I forgot my 20% on my next order coupon. I do not think it is fare to have free shipping but are unable to use it when the final tally is given. Please redesign your page to include your percentages off and free shipping. I think you will find more customers will enjoy the simplicity of your site. Thanks Donna
