Park Seed

Park Seed is one of America's oldest and most respected seed and plant companies, founded in 1868 in Hodges, South Carolina. The company offers an extensive catalog of vegetable seeds, flower seeds, herb seeds, live plants, bulbs, garden accessories, and growing supplies for home gardeners ranging from beginners to experienced growers seeking heirloom and specialty varieties.

Their seed catalog is particularly strong in vegetable varieties—tomatoes, peppers, squash, beans, and brassicas—with both hybrid and heirloom options serving gardeners who want traditional open-pollinated varieties alongside modern high-yield hybrids. Park Seed's own plant breeding program has introduced numerous award-winning vegetable and flower varieties, and their Pro-Kote seed treatment improves germination rates on their packaged seeds.

Park Seed's promotional calendar aligns with the gardening planning season: late winter catalogs (January–February) for seed starting, spring promotions as planting season begins, and end-of-season bulb clearance in fall. Early ordering in January–February ensures the best selection before popular varieties sell out. Comparing seed pricing against Burpee, Johnny's Selected Seeds, and Baker Creek Heirloom Seeds helps identify the best source for specific varieties.
