WDS is located in Ontario, Canada (there's an Ontario in California!) This is a seed company that I've just recently started ordering from. I really like that they have smaller quantities and larger quantities. Corn seed they offer a packet (120-130 seeds) all the way up to 100,000 seeds! Germination is excellent and I haven't had any problems with seeds germinating. This company is where I usually buy most of my seeds from.


There flower selection is amazing, I have never seed another seed company that has had so many different flowers to chose from.


Prices: I find this company to be reasonable priced. The one downside is that you can definitely find tomato and pepper seeds cheaper somewhere else. I may sound like a broken record, but compare prices. It is the wild wild west when it comes to seed companies and prices.


Shipping is $8.95, which is quite reasonable. If you have read any of my other blog posts you know I prefer when seed companies bake the shipping costs into the seed packet costs. However, when comparing this shipping fee to other companies, it is quite reasonable. The one downside to WDS is that it takes forever to get their seeds. A quote from their page: "For example, an order placed mid-December may ship mid February if we receive a high volume of early orders". I start my perennial seeds February 1 and other seeds March 1 so I need my seeds by February 1. A work around is to order my perennial seeds for the next year with this years order.
