    Hello, fellow Gardeners.

    I wondered if anybody have bought seeds from Ebay. Did you have any luck with them? I bought a few cheap packets of flowers that seemed nice, wondering if they are worth the wait - can't wait to try to plant them. I was amazed by the variety of crazy stuff (blue watermelons, black strawberries, violet roses and etc.) that were offered. What is your experience with Ebay seeds?

    I ordered some Black Pansy seeds and Scaredy Cat Petunia seeds from an ebay seller two years ago. The Pansy seeds have grown and produced some really cute dark purple flowers but the Petunia seeds turned out to be Poppy seeds that produced some pretty orange Poppy flowers....nice, but not black Petunias.

    I always buy seed from Ebay and have never had a problem !! Just make sure you buy from U.S.sellers !! And check the feedback rating !! I can recommend GroCo seeds,, a Texas seller !! Would have to look up the others !! Of course I just buy vegetables but they have flowers too I think !!

    I have never bought seeds from Ebay but thought I'd throw in that I have bought some plants and have been very pleased with them.
