My experience with channan Din for last 3 purchases:-
Rates are ok
seed count is very less
Seed quality is just satisfactory
On one occasion he sent me seeds of morning glory in place of passiflora
Bulb quality was also not dat good..

my experience with chanan din is 50/50.i bought seeds and bulbs .seed count is very low as mentioned javed for example only 8 seeds of petunia wave.quality is also not good..germination is 80 %.and few even not germinated including california poppy,ranunculus etc.bulbs are satisfactory i bought freesiaz,sparaxis,and nargis,till now 80 % bulbs are sprouted.this is my first attempt from channan din.previous year i bought seeds from pride seeds and sky seeds and result of both was excellent.

Big No to chanan din. Pride seeds is better but my personal favorite is sky seeds at sabzi mandi multan road. Sunny view is also good.

Re: Lahoris? Your say on the seed vendor chanan deen.?
I paid personal visit to CHANNAN DIN and the owner always regards me ... i believe his seeds are ok and have good sprout rate (the specs. can have issue ) so limit your buying to common types of seeds and online purchases are far better for speciality kind.
Blulbs there is no issue as far as one knows how to identify a healthy bulb and what requirements are to make it bloom, infact i got some of he finest glads from him a few years back.
For medicines and fertilizer he can sell you anything so be prepared and study thorough what you want before purchasing.
