My experience with Victory Seed Company was fabulous! I emailed Mike about a personalized seed packet order and he was extremely helpful and was able to get me exactly what I needed for my wedding favors. Not only was he helpful, but responded to my emails promptly and I received the final product in a matter of days. In fact, I received the product just before I read the email that indicated it was on it's way! I love the design of the packets and am very excited about giving my heirloom zinnia and sunflower seeds to my guests!

For any gardener looking for unique event favors, please check out Victory Seeds!

I placed an online order with Victory Seeds on Feb. 25th. It only took 5 days for my seeds to arrive and they were packed beautifully! Each seed packet has very detailed instructions and they were all carefully seeled in a padded envelope.

Their website was very simple to navigate and the checkout process was very straight forward. They sent a detailed receipt by email the day I placed my order and another email notice the day my seeds were shipped.

Their prices were great, shipping quick and service has been excellent so far. I would definitely order from them again.

I placed an order with Victory seeds last week. I really appreciate fast shipping as I tend to be impatient waiting for my on line orders. So, I was was pleased to receive my order 2 days later. I only placed a small order of 8 packs of heirloom seeds. I could tell by the feel of the paper packages that they were wrapped in something else, so I broke open the pack in curiosity to find they are placed into little plastic seal bags too. This company clearly cares about their cause and takes a lot of pride in their merchandise. I plan to definitely shop here again.

100 percent germination. Excellent seeds.

I purchase seeds from numerous vendors and often use an Oasis Root Cube germinating set-up with 104 cubicles per tray. With this system, it becomes quickly apparent which vendors sell viable seed and which seed vendors sell Root Cube no-shows.

I have ordered culinary seed from Victory for three planting seasons and have found their seed quality to be among the best of the United States vendors. Three Italian companies also offer fabulous European heirlooms.

My last order placed on a Monday arrived Friday. I appreciated their added care in placing the seed packets in three equal stacks in the same order for which they appear on the invoice, it allowed convenient inventory.

I do not recall the aggravating experience of short shipments or back orders as has been my experience with all other vendors.

Their packet prices under $2.00 remain a good value. Victory packages orders as they receive them, mainly from seed they produced. Their packaging has an inner re-sealable bag reflecting how they work to maintain the viability of their seeds.

In my experience, their seed germination rate approaches 100%. The subsequent plants are healthy and true to representation.

Victory is actively involved in the preservation of plant heritage and heirloom seed varieties as well as educating others regarding the horticultural histories behind them. They also gratefully acknowledge individuals and organizations by name on their site for their support of Victory's seed preservation.

It is a pleasure to do business with this conscientious company.

Ordered 10 heirloom tomato varieties from them at 10:00 P.M. Saturday 2-11-06 and received the 10 varieties at 2 P.M. Thursday 2-16-06. Impressed with the fast turn around time and the fact that they are doing marvelous work and research with/and into the histories of the heirlooms they sell. Highly recommended to all !!!!!!!!!

Ordered from Victory last season and had a wonderful experience. They promptly sent the order and all the seeds germinated except one of the pepper selections (which may have been my fault).

Great selection of tomatoes and peppers!

I've ordered a lot of seeds from this company over the past couple of years. The order always arrives promptly, and the seeds always germinate well. Like another commentator, I've had old seeds from them germinate well too. Doing business with Victory is a pleasure.

Excellent germination, even for older seeds. I haven't bought from them in two years, and have been sprouting the remainders of what I purchased then.

And so far, I've hit 100% germination with their seeds --- well, at least, it appears to be 100%. :=D I mean, I can't count every seed. But excellent, very high rate of germination. And the plants are good and hardy.

They're going on my list of reliable seed sources, along with Baker Creek and NoThyme, and I'll be purchasing from them next year.

I searched the web for Micro Tom Tomato seed, and this was just about the only company that came up in the search. I ordered on-line, and the order was shipped in two days. I received them within a week of shipping. I will be checking back with them next year for more Micro Toms!

Just had to post again--last summer everything from Victory Seeds did great again. I placed my entire seed order from them this year. Try the IOPride watermelon--amazing.

They are excellent. Both times my order came within a week, even though they were coming over the border. The seeds had really good germination and were all true. It's a small detail, but both times there was a nice hand written note on the invoice. Shipping to Canada was was less than $3.US as they adjusted the postage down 45 cents because the package weighed slighty less than the estimate. Talk about honest.

They seem to be that perfect mix between a company large enough to have good choice and efficient multinational shipping, and small enough to have personal customer service. Love 'em.

Ordered seeds from Victory Seeds and they arrived within 15 days, which includes time to go through Canada customs. Sent e-mail to the company received a prompt reply.

All seeds (tomatoes) have germinated nicely and I do not anticipate problems when they are moved outdoors.

Near Ottawa, Canada.

I ordered just a few packets of seeds from Victory Seed Co. as finding Open poll. seeds is getting difficult. They acknowledged the order very quickly. Shipping occured very promptly with an email telling me when it was shipped. Before I knew it I found the seeds in my mailbox. They were packaged well and had detailed instructions. I intend to patronize this company!

This is one of the most professional websites online. Mike and his crew are very hard workers. When you send an email to Victory Seed, you will get one back very quickly. They only carry the best quality products around, including Snow and Nealley Garden Tools and Axes.

SNOW AND NEALLEY GARDEN TOOLS AND AXES ARE THE BEST TOOLS THAT ALSO CARRY A LIFETIME WARRANTY, AND ARE 100% AMERICAN MADE.

Victory Seed Company is one of those rare companies that has the customer in mind. They are helpful, excellently priced and stand behind their products. I have been dealing with this company for sometime and I now use them almost exclusively for heirloom and organic seeds. If you are a home gardner, there is NO other place to purchase seeds at a great price.
