What Our Customers Think

"The coordination between Harris Seed and Raker-Roberta’s was amazing, and precise, and perfect in every way. I ordered what I wanted, it was seeded and grown, and shipped, and here I have 1,000 tiny begonia plugs (some with flower buds) and 500 angelonia at almost one inch tall ready for cell packs. They arrived moist, well packaged, and in the signature Raker-Roberta’s box. This is a tremendous value for those seeking hard-to-germinate or slow to develop seedlings, like begonia, or expensive seed like angelonia.”
