Landreth is an old company (not "old" like Shumway- George Washington ordered his seeds from Landreth!). I have had nothing but great experiences with this company, and will order all my non-local seeds from them in the future. Just call their customer service once and you'll be hooked (especially if you've suffered the run-around and general apathy of other so-called "gardening suppliers" which are little more than mail-order Wal-Marts).
HIGHLY RECOMMENDED

From their website: "Among its many historic claims is the fact that the company sold seed to every American president from George Washington to Franklin D. Roosevelt." Click on the "History" link on their web page.

I placed my Asian Tempest garlic order with another seed company in plenty of time, but after several weeks, the other seed company (name withheld) said that there had been a crop failure. By this time, Asian Tempest was out of stock at most of the seed companies that I checked, or it was really expensive. I finally found some at a reasonable price at D. Landreth Seed Co. online at landrethseeds.com. The bulbs arrived after only two (2) days and they are absolutely gorgeous. The cloves are very large and firm.
Landreth Seed has been offering seed to its customers for over 200 years. They offer an extensive selection of heirloom seeds and nearly 450 vegetable offerings alone. Their website would benefit from displaying photographs next to all their selections and using a larger font for those of us over 30 years old (a-hem) – Their service is good and their variety is outstanding. Prices are sometimes higher than their competition however; they compensate by their service.
I am totally delighted with the D. Landreth Seed Company. I ordered several types of zinnia....all of which have produced the most amazing display in the garden. The blossoms are simply wonderful.....with sturdy stems and 6 inch flowers. In addition, I ordered vintage seed packages (both for flowers and vegetables) which are wonderful in frames or as gifts. I truly love the selection of heirloom seeds. They are unusual to find and wonderful to grow. I ordered rhubarb....when the plants arrived the roots were huge and hardy. I now only buy my gardening supplies on line from D. Landreth!

Landreth Seeds has become a great little company. Since the new owners took over in 2003, the customer service has been improved 1000%. Imagine calling a company and a human actually answers the phone - a knowledgeable human who can answer gardening questions!!! And the catalog is worth every penny - with lots of new products - and seeds that actually grow! This is my second year ordering with Landreth and I can't wait for my garden to sprout! To the folks at Landreth - keep up the good work and I'll tell all my friends!

I belong to a local garden club. We have all agreed that D. Landreth is the only place to buy quality seeds. Their extensive product line is matched with knowledgable and ever patient customer service operators. When you chat with these folks you can tell that they really believe in their product & are avid gardeners.
I first ordered seed from Landreth in December 2003 to use as gifts. Everyone loved their seed gift pack - all are now thrilled LANDRETH customers too! Since then, all my seeds come from LANDRETH. No firm can compare to the quality of their seed line. Thanks LANDRETH - you have my highest recommendation!!!!!!!!!
