I surpassed white and purple re-blooming lilies. They took off very fast. Unfortunately the white ones are all yellow and the purple haven't opened yet.

Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend to a friend

Looking forward to a new color Stella daylily

Submitted 1 year ago

By Snow bird

From Ohio

We live in Ohio and I never received my shipment of these plants until November. Not a good time to plant this type of perennial. There were supposed to be 5 plants or roots. There were only 4 roots and they were very, very small and falling apart. Last time I buy anything from this company.

Merchant Response

Thank you for writing a review of the Daylily Purple D'Oro. We are truly sorry for the delay in shipment due to the requested item being on back order. Back orders occasionally occur when the plants are not quite to the size/health needed in order to survive shipping when originally expected. Rather than sending out inferior plants, we place the item on back order until the plants are ready. We also are terribly sorry to hear that one plant was missing from your shipment. Our shipments and plants are fully covered under a No-Risk Guarantee to ensure satisfaction. One of our Customer Care agents will be reaching out to you soon to obtain additional information about your purchase, so we may honor the guarantee for you.

Bottom Line No, I would not recommend to a friend

Nothing came up. Bulbs were rotted. Small pieces I could rescue didn't produce even any leaves. Totally discouraged.

Q
Why does this only get 2 stars? Will it thrive in a dry, high mountain desert climate in zone 5a.
Asked by Wuzzy
Verified Reply - AngelaIt looks like we had a quality issue two years ago. You can expect your plants to be in good condition when they arrive and for them to grow foliage the first year. You may or may not get blooms the first year. They should definitely bloom by the second year. I grow these and just love the color and the long bloom time. Give them a try and rest assured your purchase is backed by our No Risk Guarantee. If you are not pleased with your purchase, please call us at 1-800-552-9916 or email us at service@dutchbulbs.com and our Customer Service representatives will be happy to help you obtain a merchandise credit. Your order is important to us, and we want you, our customer, to be completely satisfied.Was this answer helpful to you
