Gurney's Seed and NurseryReviews of gurneys.com

Twice this Spring I ordered the same Grasses and Cardinal Flowers. They never grew.

Junk seed! Don’t waste your time or money purchasing anything from this ripoff company! Ruined my garden two years in a row!!! They sell old moldy seed that is worthless!!! First year ordering seed corn from them not even half the corn planted came up! This year I thought I would try the new gotta have it sweet corn and well only one third of the seed germinated! Do not order anything from this rip off company!!!

This is a follow up to my disappointment noted last year with the order of Asparagus from Gurney's. They were sickly, skinny and nothing near the other company's Bare Roots. One year later, remember you have to wait for the third year to harvest the Gurney plants are still sickly with only one or two very thin and not tall plants. Should have waited the two weeks for another order from their competitor. One Year Wasted.

We have been very unhappy with almost everything we have ordered from Gurneys. While the quality lacked overall, the peach tree was dead. They did not have in stock, so we ordered another raspberry and two blueberries to replace it, and had to pay shipping for it because it was not the exact thing that they did not have in stock and will not for another year! None of them look great, but the raspberry in particular is a pathetic 6 inch dead looking stick. We gave up and bought another one at the local nursery for less money, and it is a beautiful healthy bush. In the meantime we bought another peach tree (same one we had ordered from Gurneys and they didn't have) for $20 less than Gurneys. It is 4 feet tall with peaches on it! What you they have is not a business, it is a racket! I would have been better off taking my $300 paid to them and burned it. That way I would be out the money, but would have only had to plant things once and be ahead of the game with better and more mature plants, and not as much time wasted.

Ordered Mandarin azaleas (7) on May 7th. Original delivery date was 5/15-5/29...and I was ok with that. But every day the dates get pushed back. I called and they would "rush" it. Really!? Checked this morning and my delivery date was pushed back again 5/31-6/24! I have wasted 3 weeks waiting for this poorly run mickey mouse nursery to get their act together. Cancelled my order and will look elsewhere. I suggest you do the same...LOOK ELSEWHERE!!!!

I placed my order in January. I still don't have my seeds at the end of March. I understand the few plants..but the seeds! I wanted to get a lot started. I have ordered from them for years. Done now. I have a ship Date of April 15th,supposedly.

I placed an order using homedepot.com and part of the order was shipped from Gurneys. It never shipped and I missed my chance to plant.

Ordered garden seeds and sunflowers from them and waited for 20 days and nothing delivered. Reached out and they said...Don;t worry it is scheduled to be shipped in another 2 weeks. Have ordered from them on and off for decades but this is disappointing to take 5 weeks to ship seeds. Have to reconsider use of them in the future and then seeing these other reviews... OUCH
