We do not pre-treat our seeds unless specified in the item description. Many of our seeds, especially exotic or rare species, require some form of pre-treatment i.e soaking, nicking or stratification. Seeds leave our premises fresh and within reasonable germination / growing expectations, however, rare and exotic plant material comes generally with challenges; we do supply extra seeds. While we do provide species specific growing guidelines, seed products depend on many important related grower skills such as storage, proper planting time, type of soil, treated tap water, proper use of fertilizers, weed controls, fungicides, insecticides and reasonable environment conditions during the growing period. Germination is also affected by factors such as temperature, planting depth, moisture content, light intensity and contamination of planting media. These factors are completely out of our control and are your responsibility and risk. If this is not acceptable, please do not purchase. Thank you for your understanding in this matter. Due to the nature of the items (i.e seeds, perishables, special requests), no returns or refunds will be considered after 1 week passed the delivery date.*

We cannot honor any claims without detailed pictures or after the 24 hour from delivery. Special requests and shipping costs are not refundable; specify, if needed, that what you order is in fact what you actually want to receive, before you order (i.e type of cuttings).

●●●●●●● The Safe Seed Pledge ●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●
"Agriculture and seeds provide the basis upon which our lives depend. We must protect this foundations as a safe and genetically stable source for future generations. For the benefit of all farmers, gardeners and consumers who want an alternative, we pledge that we do not knowingly buy or sell genetically engineered seeds or plants. The mechanical transfer of genetic material outside of natural reproductive methods and between genera, families or kingdoms, poses great biological risks as well as economic, political, and cultural threats. We feel that genetically engineered varieties have been insufficiently tested prior to public release. More research and testing is necessary to further assess the potential risks of genetically engineered seeds. Further, we wish to support agricultural progress that leads to healthier soils, genetically diverse agricultural ecosystems and ultimately people and communities."
You will note the Council for Responsible Genetics use of the word "knowingly" in the pledge above. This is because it is a pledge, a promise, and not an absolute legal guarantee.
Because we cannot control nature, there is always the possibility of genetic drift. Thanks to the large multi-national corporations, this threat exists in your backyard, mine and now even into the farthest reaches of the world. Since testing is both cost prohibitive, as well as imperfect and often inconclusive, we therefore state that we will not be held legally responsible if any of our seed tests positive for genetically modified organisms.
That said, we do have control over where our seed comes from so we can reduce the likelihood of this threat. And to date, we have not had a problem. We are sorry for having to waste the space here to spell this out, but sadly, this is the world in which we live.
