Yes, I ordered from them a couple of times.  In each case, although
I ordered very early in the season they seemed to be out of stock of
many items I wanted.  I got so-so germination from many of the
seeds, and I find their prices to be a bit higher than I like.
During the last 2-1/2 years I had to call repeatedly (no less than 6
times last spring) to get each season's catalog; however, this year
I got FOUR catalogs.  Go figure.

I would order from them again, but only after exhausting some of my
other favorite mail-order sources first (Territorial Seed is one of
them).

I should point out that I have only purchased seed items from them.
I have never ordered their plants (they have some jiffy-start plants
that look interesting, but are very expensive) or gardening supplies.
