None of the sets of seeds I bought from NN germinated. I contacted them and a full refund was given. No apology but I shall be using the better known seed merchants in future.

I would therefore like to apologise that in this instance, our product did not meet these standards. I note that we have already issued a refund, and hope that you received our initial correspondence with the information on the refund and our apologies in reply to your complaint at the end of April.

I hope that we will see your custom again in the future.

Kindest Regards,

Generally very good and prompt the website is a trial however and is really clunky. I like the speed and efficiency of delivery. I dont like the bacopa seeds at all so tiny they are not germinating at all and I dont like the phials they send them in. But generally good.

Dear rOBE,

As a valued customer we appreciate you taking the time to leave us your review.

Thank you for your kind words about the running of our business.

With regards to the pelleted Bacopa seeds that you purchased, I am sorry to hear that you had issues with these. We like to pride ourselves on the quality of our products and customer service, and would like if you could get in contact with us via email with your order number so that we can send out a replacement packet to you. The seeds will arrive in phials as before, this is to ensure that pelleted seeds will arrive with you safely.

We look forward to hearing from you and your custom in the future.

Kind Regards,

Nicola

Excellent choice, value and sensible packaging…

Have used Nicky's for seeds for some years now. Always good value, sensibly packaged with minimal waste, excellent germination (except those wretched aubergines but that'll be me and too far north) and really clear and useful information about the varieties on offer. I especially go for the chillis and tomatoes and am spoilt for choice. About to go and select this year's bounty.

Great selection

After reading reviews looked at site, this is now a new website with a great selection of seeds. Delivery was prompt within 48hrs, I shall definately be returning.

Excellent and value for money.

Ii bought a variety of seeds including chocolate habanero, rocoto peppers, purple Serrano, Kermit aubergines etc. Everything germinated as per the instructions in a heated propagator with a thermostat.

Only complaint was that some of the Serrano seeds produced plants with b*stard fruits looking like a cross between some habanero type chili and a Serrano.

I'm still very happy with the quality and will use again!

Excellent service

I always buy seeds from Nicky's as their range is excellent and I have never had issues with items being out of stock. The prices are also very reasonable since they don't waste money on fancy packaging. I have occasionally had germination issues with some of their chill seeds, but it's possible these were just difficult varieties to germinate (I use a heated propagator but it's not thermostat controlled). Their dispatch and delivery is not quite as quick as some companies - my most recent order took 11 days from order to delivery - but it's still good enough.

Fast Service

Placed a large order for vegetable seeds and received them in 3 days, seeds were well packaged and had a plant label inside the packets. Spoilt for choice with so many vegetables to choose from. i will be back.

Great Supplier of Seeds

Recently purchase different kinds of seedpacks.The prices compared to Denmark are unbeatable. 4 stars because the delivery took a bit long (could however also be due to the Danish Post) and the webshop is not as simple and straightforward as it could be. Otherwise, I was quite happy with Nickys Nursery! I would order again.
