Over the last 15-20 years I've probably spent more than $20,000 with VanBourgondien (not all for my own yard - I've also planned and planted bulbs for a couple of my friends and my daughter and son-in-law). I've always found them to be very fair and helpful. The mis-marked bulbs I received in 2009 were the only problem I've had with them, and to be honest, I think it was a problem at the grower's field - when they harvested, I think they just went into the wrong bin and got labeled wrong. Companies like VanBourgondien don't grow all of their own bulbs. They rely on various farmers to supply part of their crop. The bulbs were healthy and the bed of white tulips was gorgeous, just not what I'd wanted/ordered.

Here's how the "Mrs. John Scheepers" bed looks today.
