All the catalogues are starting to roll in now, aren't they. Cook's and Johnny's are my favorites.

I really want to like Southern Exposure Seed Exchange, but all the orders I've made generally show up about a week after I gave up, ordered from some other place, and already planted. I like what they stand for, but their order management leaves something to be desired. Afterall, they're really near me. It shouldn't take that long for stuff to get here. That being said. All the garlic I planted (well, except for the three heads I got at the grocery store) came from them, and it's all doing wonderfully.

That stinks about Southern Exposure! I've ordered from them a few times and never had that problem! Maybe you plan better than I do though and actually order when you're supposed to...which is probably when everyone else is ordering...so maybe they just can't handle peak season ordering madness.

They are a neat company and I love their catalog. Shame about the customer service!

Anybody ever ordered from Starks? I just got their catalog and liked it. They had mostly fruit trees and vines.
Anybody ever order trees from a catalog?
