I received these a couple weeks ago, they were already starting to bloom, put them in the ground in March zone 7 and they are thriving!

I got these 5 bulbs today. 2 are mushy rotten. 3 have green mold on them. I am returning but wish I wouldn't have ordered. Some reviewers said theirs arrived in similar conditions, but I didn't listen!!! :(

    • Grew nicely
I bought these earlier this year in the spring planted then in the night and they were beautiful by summer only one of them did not produce a flower, but was still green and full. I recommend this product. They were the same color as the picture

Read other one star reviews. Apparently I am the only one that cannot repeat what is in them but this is not a good product and you will not be happy once you get them.

Beautiful flower. Only one of several had sprouted the beautiful pink/purple flower. Hoping the others will next year!

    • Liatris Bulbs
These are pretty easy to grow directly planted as the bare root bulb the seller provided. They were not given any special treatment, just planted root side down in ordinary garden soil. All 5 came up and now they are mounds of grass-like leaves showing signs of blooming. I’m perfectly pleased with what I received and impressed with their hardiness when I certainly didn’t coddle them, planting in the summer! ... show more
