seeds Best seed provider and best live plant provider?

[Steve973]

Is there any consensus about which seed providers and which live plant providers are the best? I want to make sure I make the best possible decisions when ordering my seeds or plants next year.

I have had great results with Hirt's Gardens. The plants arrive in a timely fashion and in good shape.

 

[bentalphanerd]

there is a list of who to avoid Steve, theres some real bad seed suppliers out there - best off asking in this forum about a particular supplier before you buy.

Beth at Peppermainia is good to deal with and she has some good varieties too..

I used Peppermania for seeds this year and they were outstanding.

 

[cmpman1974]

I agree about Peppermania. Also rainbowchiliseeds.com.

For live plants, Cross Country Nursery is my favorite. TheChileWoman is a great source too.

Ok, good. I ordered some plants from thechilewoman this year, and I was planning on ordering from her again next year. As long as most people think that her stuff is pretty good, I'll go with that plan.

I too can vouch for both Beth (bayou / peppermania) and rainbowchiliseeds.
Besides those;
seedman http://seedman.com/
tomatogrowers http://www.tomatogrowers.com/
fatalii.net http://www.fatalii.net/growing/


No personal experience, but consensus is on several forums that one should stay away from Reimer.

i'd vote for rainbowchilliseeds good quick service (to the uk) with good germ rate.
But do AVOID riemers (and warn everyone else about them)

The chili pepper institute is very reliable and a great place to get seeds. They have some exclusive types. I got my bhuts from them.

I have also gotten some seeds from ushotstuff.com

I only hear really bad things about reimerseeds.com Lots of people complain that the get the wrong stuff or that they got a cross.

If you want live plants then http://www.chileplants.com/ is good.

I ordered a bunch of seeds from seedman.com this past year and was not impressed with his seeds at all...very poor germination rate...less than 20 percent...

Thanks xx I can't think of a better (very small! only me!) business/hobby! If anyone wants to swap pure seeds with any on the site let me know

 

[wordwiz]

I ordered a boatload of seeds from Randell at http://www.rareseeds.com - about 30 types of peppers, a dozen types of toms, four eggs and four cukes. Good germination rates, usually far more seeds in the package than stated.
