And I think my two Melusines are Rembrant Von Rijns of which I Now have over half a dozen! THey are far greener then the photos of Melusine. WIll take pics tomorrow for your opinion, but once again a pink Amie turns out to be anything but pink!

Jodi...have you started our letter yet? I almost cried when I saw my long awaited Melusines! And the Pink Floyd that turned out to be Emerald, only bloomed for less then a week! I did receive my new replacement PInk Floyd today but have been too exhausted to open it yet.

Yes, Lizalily... I've begun to write down a few thoughts on the subject of mislabeled bulbs, and as I said, with a little more input from the crowd I'll be going for broke! I want it to be a generic letter that can be sent to multiple companies since it's more than one company handing out mislabeled bulbs.

It would be helpful to me if everyone would tell me how many bulbs they've gotten that have been either mislabeled or have had health issues, and which companies they've had problems with. I believe I will begin a new thread with this in mind...

I think the mislabel problems begin at the grower level and are not really the fault of the retailer or wholesaler, although keeping the proper tags with the proper bulbs ends at the seller level. Most plant material sold in bulk can be ordered with or without tags, and there are separate companies that sell tags. I know this to be true with growers and sellers that deal in annuals and perennials, so I'm assuming it might be the same for bulbs... I'm not certain of this, though.

Either way, just our little group of buyers here on the forum adds up to a lot of money spent and a lot of bulbs purchased, and it's not right to pay good money for something and have it not be what was originally ordered!
