K. van Bourgondien is great. Never had any problems with their products. FedEx, however is not so good. This is the second oder in a row where FedEx has dropped the ball. The previous issue was bulbs sitting for days on a truck in sub zero weather. This time FedEx left the package on my doorstep during a reall heavy rainstorm, even hough there was a covered porch no more than six (6!) feet away. Package is really soggy but contents appear to be OK.

I’ll start from the moment I began to put my order in, I was so excited about the pricing and options available immediately. Once I limited down my selection, because it took a long time to decide which dahlia tubers I wanted to order and how many I could afford, I put my order through. The shipment was fast and tracking number was great, other than I emailed to change my shipping address and it was never acknowledged. Once I picked up the package from my old house, I brought it home and opened the package. I immediately got nervous, the first few tubers I looked at were not sprouting any eyes, a few were very small, and a couple didn’t even have signs of the old stock. I’m concerned they won’t be successful but I decided to give them a little time to show the eyes. I am cautious about ordering from this company again because of the listed above, hopefully just some late showing on the eyes and a successful blooming season to come.

I do not have a green thumb. Product showed up in plastic bag. When opened, it was a mass of dirt, and roots. Couldn't tell what side was up or whether it was even a plant. Emailed customer service days ago. No response. Dug three holes, stuck product (?) in holes. Been watering since 3x daily. We'll see if it ever grows.

I think the photos are great, and explanations are ok. It would be good to have a bit about planting zone appropriateness with each plant type, as well as when one should plant (a little color coding chart could easily provide this).

You emailed that you had my order and then I didn’t hear anything for a week. When I inquired, I got a text back with a long song and dance about how to handle the purchases in the order received, but I didn’t get an answer to when mine was coming. Very poor. It did arrive within the next week, FYI.

Here's the rub. I order dahlias every year from Dutch dahlia suppliers and resellers. Off and on over the last 10 years I have ordered from them. In my opinion the product they shipped this year was the worst of all the other large purveyors of Dutch dahlia tubers. I always have a fewbtuberbreplacements on occasion, but roughly 1/2 of the shipment was horrible. Of those purveyors the best this year was Tulip world then Longfield. A reseller replaced an order with worse product. I will address that separately

We are extremely disappointed with the yellow coneflower plants we received from our recent order. We purchased 12 plants, expecting four packets of three healthy, well‑rooted plants each, as advertised. What arrived was nowhere close to that standard. When we opened the packets, we found: One packet contained only 2 plants, not the 3 we paid for. In the remaining packets, although labeled correctly, one plant in each was shockingly small—only 2–3 inches long with almost no root system. These tiny plants were not remotely comparable to the others and certainly not what we would consider viable or acceptable quality. We soaked everything overnight and planted the 11 usable plants the next morning, but the 3 undersized plants were clearly not viable, and one plant was missing entirely. For a company we trusted to deliver consistent quality, this was genuinely disappointing. Because: We are missing one plant, and Three others were far below acceptable size and quality, we are requesting two replacement packets of three plants each. This is a fair and reasonable remedy that would provide us with four healthy, usable plants, which is what we should have received in the first place. We hope you will address this promptly and restore our confidence in your products.
