I will use them again in the future and hopefully remember to update my rating to reflect germination rates. They also included some freebies in the order. |

Easy to use website, clear germination instructions, very reasonable prices, a wide variety of seeds. The most outstanding feature is their communication with the customer at every step. I have been very pleased with every transaction and will continue to be a loyal customer. |

I have purchased from both a co-op and, most recently, another order I made from their website. Excellent communication and customer service. Great seeds--some are already growing in my wintersowing tubs--and even fantastic bonus seeds. Thanks Summer Hill and Robin! |

I wish all the other companies would take heed - Robin has set the bar. |

So many good things to choose from! I was pleased that I was able to use my discount code even though I was using gift certificates. And on top of all that free seeds too! On March 18th, 2009, jvw added the following: Just wanted to add that I contacted Robin asking for help today with a problem of one of the seed varieties. Not only did I get an immediate response but also an offer to replace the seeds! I don't understand why Summer Hill Seeds isn't in the top 30! Awesome product, awesome customer service! Jennifer |

| Neutral | ladygardener1 (3 reviews) | On Jan 24, 2009, ladygardener1 Near Lake Erie, NW, PA (Zone 5a) wrote: Received my seeds 6 days after placing my internet order. I was notified by email as to the statice of the order. The seed packets have very good instructions on sowing/germination, however the height and general growing instructions are missing. Had to go back to look for information as to sun/ shade ect. for setting out the plants into the garden. On September 7th, 2009, ladygardener1 changed the rating from positive to neutral and added the following: I feel the need to update my review. I will probably order more seeds from SH but be more selective and order the seed that I have trouble finding. I had bad luck germinating the petunia seeds. I have had better experence with petunia seeds from other companies. The Linaria and coleus seeds did great. Maybe it was just a bad year for petunia seeds. On September 7th, 2009, ladygardener1 added the following: Robin just contacted me.. Boy is she fast. She has offered to replace or exchange for another verity the seeds I had problems with. I do feel that the service is top notch, better then any large seed companies. But the end results, growing season are important. I will still keep SH on my list to order from. A few poor seeds do not make a bad company or seller. |

Customer service is great, Robin is so helpful! The seeds arrived promptly along with comprehensive instructions and I am very satisfied with them. They have now become my favorite seed supplier ;-) |

I also received special instructions for the seeds, besides the instructions on the seed packets. I also received extra seeds as well. from the moment I ordered the seeds, I had emails notifying every step of the seeds being processed to when they where delivered. |

| Positive | Ficurinia (5 reviews) | On Dec 3, 2008, Ficurinia Portland, OR wrote: Last year I ordered from this company, so I chose to again this year. Again, it was a great experience. Three packets of free seeds were sent with my order based on the other seeds I ordered. In addition, the selection of garden vine seeds is amazing and there is a lot to choose from. Cannot wait to order more next year. Easy to order from, order information updated regularly, and shipped well in a solid puffy envelope. |

Robyn (at Summer Hill) went above and beyond to make things run as smoothly as possible, re-ordering and re-stocking seeds in order to fill requests. We got a nice discount and well-packaged seeds, with germination instructions and a promise that Robyn would continue to stand by to provide any help we might need. Thanks, Robyn! |

| Positive | Mar1 (1 review) | On Jul 2, 2008, Mar1 Garland, TX wrote: Very impressed with this company. Was my first time ordering seeds from the internet and didn't really know what to expect. I liked that they sent e-mailed updates about when my order shipped & the e-mail address. When I got my packet, there was a handwritten thank you along with a packet of additional seeds that I had been thinking about getting. Was very excited and even my husband was impressed. Will definately be ordering from this company again. |
| Positive | Kandi7 (13 reviews) | On Mar 2, 2008, Kandi7 Tekamah, NE wrote: Wonderful company! Fairly priced and they send bonuses that are based on your order - I ordered some plants for a new flower bed for my daughter and they sent me a package of seeds that I'd been looking for everywhere and unable to find as a bonus! Great communication and customer service - I can't say enough nice things about this company. |
| Positive | gladpuppy1 (4 reviews) | On Feb 18, 2008, gladpuppy1 Stow, OH wrote: I chose to order from this company because of the good reviews on this website, and I could not be more pleased that I did! My order was shipped just a day or two after placing it, and it arrived by the end of the same week. These aren't commercial packets, but rather glassine envelopes within little plastic bags, but they are well marked, with clean seed and the seed counts are very generous. They also gifted some seeds that were very much the kind I would have chosen for myself. I had ordered all variegated varieties, and the gift seeds were also for variegated plants. Putting that kind of thought into an order is impressive. I will definately be ordering from these folks again! A wonderful experience in every way! |

Ordering from Robin was a refreshing, feel good experience that definitely brought a smile to my face. Super fast shipping to Alaska, a personal, handwritten note, great packaging with individual directions...and bonus seeds to top it all off. It was obvious she took the time to select bonus seeds that would complement what I'd purchased, along with taking my growing conditions into account. The website is easy to navigate, a pleasure to peruse and complete (meaning pictures, not just descriptions)...I will ditto all the other positive reviews...and then add 5 stars on top! |

Add to all that, a hand written note and extra seeds and you get as close to perfection as you can get. I will be shopping here on a regular basis from now on. |

First the fantastic selection of hard to find seeds; second the great price; third the ease of ordering; fourth the quick shipment - with extra goodies - and a personal note; as if all that wasn't enough, I had a question and emailed the company and had a thorough response within the day. It's like dealing with a friend. I'll be back to shop/buy and I'll be recommending Summerhill to many many other gardeners. |

The customer service with this company is above any that I have received with any other seed company. I love the fact that they took to the time to include a hand written note with my order. The seeds are packaged very well with very clear information on each. The extras that they sent with my order were wonderful. It was like they read my mind as to what else I would love. Very, very happy with my experience with Summerhill Seed. I will be ordering from them again and again. |
| Positive | PatrickNH (3 reviews) | On Jan 28, 2007, PatrickNH Barnstead, NH wrote: Recently received my first order from this company. I too enjoyed the nice touch of a plant marker with each seed packet. Response was swift and accurate, and I was very surprised to see the variety of rare plants which they carried, many of which are variegates that come true from seed. The crowning touch for me was not just that they did include extras which were not cheap fillers, but rather were packets from among the standard offerings in the catalog. That they took the time to choose for me some extra seeds which they guessed would fit my interests based on what I did order, showed an exceptional interest in cultivating not only customers, but gardening friends. First class all the way. |

The order came quickly, and was packed very well. I appreciated the germinating instructions that came with every pack that I ordered. The site doesn't really specify that so I was pleasantly surprised. I recommend Summer Hill Seeds highly. |
