Caribbean Garden Seed

"Absolute garbage. Despicable and dishonest. Sounds like most of the reviews are the same. I ordered seeds in July 2023 and it's January 2024 and I still have not received them. The credit card was charged, many many attempts to contact using email, their website chat, and phone have yielded zero response. DO NOT ORDER ANYTHING FROM THIS COMPANY."

"I ordered 2 plants from CaribbeanGarden, an Amazom Seller, a.k.a. Caribbean Garden Seed. They took my order on 12/8/23 and charged my credit card. They put a USPS tracking number on the Amazon site on 12/9/23 saying the package was picked up by USPS and will be delivered 12/12/23. Checking with USPS, Caribbean Garden generated a pre-shipment tracking number, but never packed the items and never contacted USPS for a pickup. Caribbean updated the Amazon tracking to say "delayed in transit" which is not USPS terminology. I contacted the Seller on Amazon 3 times and never got a reply. CaribbeanGarden, an Amazom Seller, a.k.a. Caribbean Garden Seed is a fraud company that steals consumers money, doesn't ship items and doesn't follow up with customer inquiries. Beware - they will steal your money!"

"How many times do I have to write them to get a replacement for the rotting Okinawa Purple sweet potatoes that came with a hole in the main one? No answers or accountability from Caribean Garden Seed. Ruin your reputation online for the price of replacing two sweet potatoes? Really!"

"[I posted this review originally on 7/26/23 on the vendor's website. I think it will do more good here.] NOT GOOD AT ALL The starter plant arrived much later than advertised. It arrived mostly out of its small pot, with the soil scattered throughout the box. It had exactly eight leaves, four of which were brown and crispy, and the remaining four of which were wilted. I carefully poured the soil back into the pot, adding a bit of potting soil from my own supply, watered the plant thoroughly, and acclimated it in its pot in the shade for five days. It appeared to recover. I then planted it in my garden under the new trellis. I watered it daily, and it seemed fine for about a week with one small leaf bud slowing enlarging, until the last four leaves and the bud suddenly wilted and never recovered. I then hand-inspected the root system only to find that it had almost no root tissue at all, and that what did exist was brown and withered. I have tried calling Caribbean Garden Seed six or eight times, never to get an answer or an option of leaving a voice mail message. Needless to say, I won't be buying anything from Caribbean Garden Seed again."

"I'm so disappointed. I ordered Grenada seasoning pepper live seedlings back in February. April came and went, not a peep. I emailed many times but no response, tried to send a message from the website, but there's a flaw in the form and called and called. Finally got through and they claimed these plants had just come in. They sent them fairly quickly but they were half dead, wrapped in a paper towel and plastic wrap. I had no choice but to plant them and fortunately the weather was good so I did and within two days they are gone. No reputable garden center would send plants like that."
