I hesitate to put Michigan Bulb Company in the same category with
Van Bourgondien....I've had very bad luck with the pricey White Flower
Farm in Connecticut and good luck with Van B. - this only concerns
lily bulbs not irises. White Flower Farm sent me two absolutely
rotting lily bulbs last Fall. They knew these bulbs were on the way
out because they were dusted with fungal powder. They did send me
my money back, to their credit.
