THANKS LISA!!
Funny how all the POSITIVE REVIEWS come from REPEAT Customers who actually bothered to View our Blog full of 16+ Years worth of RESOURCES, TUTORIALS, VIDEOS, PHOTOS, DISCUSSION, Q & A's, etc.
It seems the only people who complain are those who don't bother to Learn or put ANY effort in whatsoever.
POPPIES are VERY Tricky to get Started. Regardless how experienced you may be at growing "other things".
I'm sure you know that.
I thank you for your honesty and Loyalty!

To be straight forward

1/18/2020* update! I just FINALLY received a message back from the company to a review a made in 2018!!! Cant get the stuff in the mail on time and cant even reply on time... there are MANY better companies yo shop with...

2018: To be straight forward, I have purchased twice from the owner. Once in 2010 when they were known as Exjordanary and more recently in 2017 as Organical Botanicals. Both instances were a waste of money and time.
First time, I ordered a handful of different types of seeds to grow. It took over two weeks to receive my order. A package that weighed under a lb; 4 small baggies with less than 500 seeds in all... and out of the 3 different companies I ordered from at the same time, same species, only the other companies' seeds produced healthy plants.
This last time was a huge waste of money. I REALLY had my hopes up this time. 5 lbs of "untreated variety pack"of seeds. Typically, the plant pieces in the package would have a taste and the seeds, well... lets just say there were more tan and white and red under-developed seeds than there were "viable"... They tasted bad... Let's hope that something grows this spring. I will come back and edit this post if something worthwhile happens in my garden.
From a scientist, botanist, chemist, and lover of the poppy...

QUESTION: If BOTH Instances were a "a waste of money and time", Why then, did return for TWO LARGE Orders??
If just seems fishy why you'd do that if you had bad prior experiences...
And why did you NOT mention it to us while Ordering?? MAKES NO SENSE Usually the Truth Makes Sense.
AND, WHO THE HECK TASTES SEEDS BEFORE THEY PLANT THEM (BTW: the "Jizz" from the Poppy is Bitter, and isn't supposed to taste good)
ALSO, you paid EXTRA for UNWASHED Seeds. If you cared about taste, u should have bought washed seeds. (not all pod particles are the size u think they are - think about it)
DID YOU SEE THE PHOTO OF OUR SEEDS WITH ALL THE COLORS??

(LAST PIC)
DID YOU TRY THEM YET?? WHAT'S THE DEAL?
WHY DON'T YOU CONTACT US?
WHY NO PICS OF RECEIVED PRODUCT ON ARRIVAL??
YOU EXPOSE YOUR IGNORANCE ABOUT Somniferum Poppy Seeds, based on your Limited knowledge on their Color Array.
Not all poppy seeds are Blue/Grey -(and our seeds are mature and viable)

I ordered seeds and they had each …

I ordered seeds and they had each flower seed in separate packages and labeled describing the color. I was really impressed! Thank you, Jessie Schuchard

Thank you Jessie for your Honest Review. Finally, someone who reviewed the actual quality of our PRODUCT.
(instead of complaining about Shipping time, or blaming us for their OWN User Errors- as we never claim to ship fast anyways, so IDK why people bring that up).
So, thank you!!

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

This company is awesome because they truly care that you succeed in your venture.

This company is fantastic because they offer free tutorials and answer all your questions promptly. I do not have a green thumb, per say but I had success the first time. To me that is the most important asset!

Hey Richard. (u just texted my phone while I happened to be here - going through reviews.)
A Customer once= A Friend for life.
Because, we're here to help people with questions about growing, etc. - until the end of time.
Not just until the sale is over - or once you leave a good review.
U can buy a tiny pack of seeds, and if u have a question, 2, 3, 5 years out, -or at ANY time in the future, all u gotta do is pick up your phone.
(I'm not sure what it is, maybe Annuals, Perennials, or Millenials -but they lazily send a single email without even trying to call- then complain that they couldn't get a hold of anyone. Ask your Mom to help).
If anyone is like that - PLEASE, we don't want your biz- go to eGay
LOL!!
Keep in touch Richard!!

My personal Botanical Wiki

Customer service is taken seriously at Organical Botanicals. Beyond the usual "fast shipping", "responds quickly"... which are all true but he stays with you to assure your success. Not just get the sale done then next customer please. His knowledge base is expert allowing him to correct whatever problems you may run across.
You will need that. I did and continue to call on him. He's always there to help. My personal Botanical Wiki.

The Poppy People

You won't find these on ebay! This company were recommended to me as having the most extensive selection of rare papaver somniferum strains on the net, I certainly agree. Plus a great deal of information and advice to help succeed in growing these wonderful plants. Good luck to everyone.

No other source for the best out there

I spend dozens of hours researching and putting in many late nights when I get fixated on learning a new plant. And as a commercial grower, I can attest to seed sourcing as being my most highly prized and coveted skill set. Usually getting the seeds myself even in other countries.

Often times over spending on an item yields a more bitter result due to products lacking the merits of a higher paid premium price. And this company breaks the barrier of premium price because they deliver on their products.

Organical Botanicals is truly the best out there in the States. The variety they offer and price they are asking are not found anywhere else. I have wasted thousands on sub standard seeds over my career, don't make that mistake.

Being the skeptic that I am, I bought several varieties and grew them all in isolation. The products they advertise are what you get.

I honestly will not shop anywhere else. eBay , Amazon and other online places offer cheap quality and you get what you pay for.

True and Trustworthy!!

Was skeptical at first, but they made a believer out of me. Whether you are wanting to grow poppies, or if you're just a Tea drinker. I have ordered from the other "Major 3", and these seeds are something completely unique and way higher yeilding than anywhere else I have shopped.
They don't sellout on eBay, Amazon, or ANY other Marketplace like other Vendors do.
For that, I respect about them, as it makes me feel special to have found this hidden Treasure, hidden in the Web.
Thanks OrganicalBotanicals.com !!

Excellent Selection of Rare & Exotic Botanicals and Poppy Seeds

Great quality products!! I bought some of their Afghan GMO Opium Poppy Seeds (all their other products are NON-GMO, Organic, Open-Pollinated, Heirloom Seeds) - But these seeds were very hard to find since Izmir Oil & Spice went out of business.
A Bit pricey. The shipping isn't the quickest, so Order Seeds Early.
But other than that, the results I received from these seeds were worth every penny!
I wanted to wait to write this review until I saw the results of my harvest.
All I can say is, WOW! 100% Legit. I have since ordered from them two more times as they continue to add more products.

Thank you Mr. Pumphrey for the great review. We have since hired more Staff dedicated to the Shipping Department so Orders are going out much faster now.
We have also integrated the latest, State-of-the-Art, Shipping & Postage Software which helps things run much more efficient.

I must agree that we ARE, in fact, a little more "Pricey" than many other Sellers you see on eBay and Amazon, but I think you came to realize, and even mentioned in your review, how the Quality of our Product meets the highest of Standards - therefore "Worth every penny".

I can't tell you how many times I would find eBay and other Sellers around the web who had Stolen our Photos to use in their Listings, claiming to have grown them. This is why we are so adamant about WATERMARKING EVERY Photo before Publishing them online.

Which is always something for Buyers to keep in mind when purchasing Poppy Seeds. Make sure the Seller has plenty of their OWN, ORIGINAL Photos (and/or videos) of their Poppies.). Do a google search to make sure they didn't steal them from Google Images, and make sure that the Seller Watermarked them, since it only makes sense they'd want to protect Images they worked hard for.

There's a ton of Sellers out there today who are just "RE-Sellers" who buy BULK Seeds from Spice Companies in India, and call them whatever Name that will attract Sales. And if they have Positive Feedback, it's only due to the fact that, most people leave Feedback when they receive their item. But is also, too late by the time the Poppies Mature into some random, unexpected Variety that doesn't match the Item's Description.
THANKS!!
