Saratoga Seed Gift Cards are a Great Holiday Gift Idea!

Saratoga Springs, NY- What do you get the gardener who has everything?  "Get them a gift card at SaratogaSeed.com  and let them choose for themselves!", says John Karling, the owner of Saratoga Seed.  He says that plants will start shipping  around mid-April 2019 and that he expects the upcoming growing season to be a good one.

Saratoga Seed was started in 2009 in Saratoga Springs, NY.  "Back then, we only sold one plant, pink lily of the valley.  But we sold thousands of them online!"  Karling knew he was on to something, and with the decline of eBay and growth of Amazon, his company was positioned to take on more plant varieties.

"The bulk of our business is now through Amazon and our website. Our busy season starts with the first warm days in March, peaks in May and then peaks again in Fall.  Gift Cards are a way that we can flatten out some of our sales curves during the slower Winter season."
