Has anyone bought seeds from this company before? The seeds seem to be pretty cheap but unsure of quality or germination rate.
Thoughts?

I usually buy once a year from Pinetree (5 years now) and have had good luck. Their seed count for some flower varieties may seem low, but when compared to how much some vendors charge and how much you get from them it's just as comperable, Their bean seed quantity is close to other vendors for 1/2 the cost and I always have had good germination and good bean harvests...

I have been buying from Pinetree for years - going back maybe 15, though I don't buy every year. I have always had great results with their seed. They also have very good customer service. One of my favorite seed companies.

They are a good company to purchase from.

Yep, buy from them every year. Not a great amount of variety, but good service, good seed, fair prices. I would recommend them.

I love Pinetree. I've ordered from them many times over the past 13-14 years. Not every year, since I've moved multiple times and have not had a garden every year. But they've been consistently good quality.

Don't wait too long to order. In years past they warned people that March into April is their busy time. Orders placed then would take lots longer to be processed and sent out. They may have found a way to deal with this, but since you'll be wintersowing, the earlier you order, the better. I usually order in January with no problems.
