Hi all,
here's some profile from Hadeco site
lucky star
Babydoll
Molto Bello
Hatta, if you can't find anyone to pool in Molto bello, perhaps you would want to consider babydoll. Babydoll seems to out perform molto bello slightly.
Are you adding little star to your list? if we can get up to 5, i'll take one. :)
Little Star any one?
Becky, i decide to add a regular nymph to my order list.
Anyone wish to add more order to their list?
(Boy, CHAD strike hard this time) :)
regards,
David |

| Thanks David. I am OK switching from Molto Bello to Baby Doll ... I like Molto Bello's name though, sounds exotic :-). In any case, I want to order 3 bulbs of either Molto Bello or Baby Doll. Yes, I think Little Star's performance is so good. I atill want to order it, may be increase it to 2 bulbs. Hatta |

RE: Bloomingbulbs.com Group Order
| | |
| Hello everyone, i went ahead and sent in our list. I just canceled my first order and redid one so there will be less confusion. I hope we got everyone in on the order that was interested. I ordered the 5 little star so i will take the leftovers. Thank you so much for doing the hard work David, the ordering was the easy part the figuring it all out was the hardest part! I saved the list to file so we will know what is what when i get them here. It might be easiest to just wait until they come to pay me though that way no one will have to do separate checks, payments, etc. when it comes time to ship them out to everyone. is that ok for all that ordered? Becky |
RE: Bloomingbulbs.com Group Order
| | |
| Did Frank manage to get in? I know he was interested. |
RE: Bloomingbulbs.com Group Order
| | |
| Thanks Becky, I can't wait for October to arrive. |
RE: Bloomingbulbs.com Group Order
| | |
| OCTOBER, please arrive quickly! Thanks Becky and David, and all others that combine to bring the prices down! Hatta |
RE: Bloomingbulbs.com Group Order
| | |
| Thanks Ryan...I was so swamped with work I couldn't log in or devote the attention this needed. I mentioned grouping an order with Alana, but haven't worked on that either. Becky, you are quite generous to organize this. Ya'll will have such pretties come October, but please don't rush the summer away...LOL! -Frank |
RE: Bloomingbulbs.com Group Order
| | |
| Does anyone know when this order early sale ends? 30% off is definitely generous. |
RE: Bloomingbulbs.com Group Order
| | |
| Pax- I emailed them and they never responded...but we should hurry. I just went back on the site and some of them are already sold out... Little Star is one of them and I really wanted that one! -Frank |
RE: Bloomingbulbs.com Group Order
| | |
| Wow, the bulbs are selling out quick. I wanted Little Star as well. Those prices are really great. I expect the bulbs to be small (kinda like the bulbs we got from Edens) but still. I'm going to try place my order this weekend. =) |
RE: Bloomingbulbs.com Group Order
| | |
| Frank, you might consider contacting Hadeco directly to inquire if any other retailers in the US are carrying 'Little Star' this season. |
RE: Bloomingbulbs.com Group Order
| | |
| They added some more varieties to the list. |
RE: Bloomingbulbs.com Group Order
| | |
| If Becky has not ordered yet, would like to get the below too: 5 x $0.71 Daffodil Tazetta - Canary Bird |
RE: Bloomingbulbs.com Group Order
| | |
| I'm glad this order is closed, so I don't add any of the new additions to my order! |
RE: Bloomingbulbs.com Group Order
| | |
| Hey, I got the Daffs in, no conformation email yet they just sent a partial. They assure me we are getting what we ordered but some bulbs are not in the system yet. Anyway just wanted to update this thread, Oh and here is my aphrodite i am lucky enough to have 5 bloomers right now! |

RE: Bloomingbulbs.com Group Order

Hi,
It's September now, and very soon our order will arrive. I suggest we start compile our mailing address so that it would be easier later for Becky(kinghaven). you guys and gals can email your postal address to me. (Becky, would that be okay?)
Best Regards,
David |
RE: Bloomingbulbs.com Group Order
| | |
| hehe, thanks for the reminder, David. Becky, let us know what's easiest for you. Thanks so much for ordering these for us all. |
RE: Bloomingbulbs.com Group Order
| | |
| I finally got a reeipt from them after a few calls, i was starting to get nervous that they had not sent the updated one yet. Now that I have the receipt it does not look like the prices are right. Look and see what you think. Trentino and Zombie sure are deals at the price they have listed. If you see extra bulbs thats because I added a few others for myself, again! Ships between: 10/05/2009 and 10/19/2009
Your credit card will be billed on or about 09/17/2009.

RE: Bloomingbulbs.com Group Order
| | |
| Hey Becky, just fyi, I found an addition error in my invoice from them, so be sure to double check everything on it. I would have thought it was all computer generated and error free, but apparently not. Alana |
RE: Bloomingbulbs.com Group Order
| | |
| There is also an obvious error in the price and extended prices of Trentino and Zombie. Those are the only two that I noticed, anyway. Ann |
RE: Bloomingbulbs.com Group Order
| | |
Hi Becky,
i've checked against my previous list. baby doll and little star is at even better price probably they're fast sell out items. Then, the papilio, trentino and zombie are much 'better' than what they offer initially. :) |
RE: Bloomingbulbs.com Group Order
| | |
| Thanks Becky for taking the effort to help with the mass order. |
RE: Bloomingbulbs.com Group Order

| So the mini amaryllis listed on this site are as advertised, as small as 20 cm? Cool! --Rr |

RE: Bloomingbulbs.com Group Order

| Hi, We just heard through another customer about the pricing errors on your order that were posted on this site. The prices shown on your receipt for the Trentino and Zombie amaryllis were mistakenly set too low. This was due to our moving to a completely new ecommerce platform which changed the processes we use to manage orders and requires us to maintain two databases of customer orders.
e36yellowm3, if you can please give me a call at 1-800-648-2852 or email me at Scott@BloomingBulb.com I would be happy to take care of the error on your order that you mentioned on September 8th. Please let me know if I can be of any further assistance. Sincerely,
Scott Squire & the staff at BloomingBulb.com |
RE: Bloomingbulbs.com Group Order
| | |
| Hello everyone, Anyone who ordered miniature Sonatini bulbs from Bloomingbulbs.com separately from the GW Group Order may have paid up to 10 times more per bulb. For example, the Group Order only paid $0.22 each for the 10 Zombie bulbs they ordered. In contrast, others paid $2.20 for each Zombie bulb. For Trentino, the Group Order was only charged $0.44 per bulb, whereas others paid $2.20 per bulb. The prices were also mistakenly set too low (but to a lesser extent) for Baby Doll and Little Star. I placed my order (which was actually larger than the Group Order) long before the GW Group Order. As a result, I paid about $14 more for the Sonatini bulbs I purchased from Bloomingbulbs.com (not counting the additional shipping costs because shipping is based on the total cost of the order). It is nice that the participants of the Group Order benefited. However, I think that all customers should be treated equally. Thus, I requested that Scott Squire and his father (owner Michael Squire) consider honoring their pricing for others of us who ordered the same bulbs (i.e., Trentino, Zombie, Baby Doll, and Little Star). If they were unable to do this, I requested that they include something in our orders or offer reduced shipping on a future order to make up for the extra costs we were charged. Both of my requests were refused. Besides all of this, Bloomingbulbs was holding up my entire order (without notification) because one Dutch bulb 'Moonlight' was delayed. We all know that Sonatini bulbs need to be planted promptly because of their small size and tendency to dehydrate. At least, Scott Squire has agreed to ship the South African bulbs now and ship the one Dutch bulb later. I remain frustrated, but I tried my best to resolve things. Best, Blanca |
RE: Bloomingbulbs.com Group Order
| | |
| This totally sucks! I placed my order for Trentino, etc on July 5, 2009 and was charged the full price of $2.20/bulb. I paid between $2.20 and $2.69/bulb for the Alfredo and Bellismo bulbs too. I'm thrilled that you all got a "bargain"...and were able to take advantage of the seller's error, but it seems wrong that they aren't willing to make some offer to others on the list that put orders in earlier and paid 10 times more. That's just wrong. Also, Blance should be very concerned as my bulbs were somewhat dehydrated when I got them...and I planted them immediately. Other shippers ship a partial shipment in order to ensure that the customer gets bulbs in good order. I will have to rethink future individual purchases from BloomingBulbs. It's not right that they aren't providing the best service for customers like Blanca (and others) who are paying full price. Kristi |

That would be fair, if we all pay the same price. But (and there is a but) I have no news whatsoever of them, does anyone has any news?
And I am afraid by the time we get them they will be nothing but a brown wrinkly skin.
Some news there???? please.

RE: Bloomingbulbs.com Group Order
| | |
| Scott, thanks for the offer, though I had previously called and had it fixed. I was just surprised to see an addition order on a generated invoice. Now I'm just awaiting my order. I understand it's not scheduled until next week due to delayed container from your supplier. Alana |
RE: Bloomingbulbs.com Group Order
| | |
| Has anyone heard from Becky about this order? |
RE: Bloomingbulbs.com Group Order
| | |
Hello, I just got a ups notice the shipment will be here by the 26th? That could not of been sent until yesterday, I was thinking maybe they held it because they are mad I started trouble by posting my reciept here! I did not know it would cause quite the stir for the company that it did. This is the last company left to ship my order, m&Z and garden import arrived a week ago already. The M&Z bulbs are AMAZING as big as grapefruits. The garden center here also had some of the biggest I have ever seen, I had to get a Lima, a appleblossom and one called bestseller?
As soon as the order gets here I will repack and send them out to you all the same day, I have everything ready to get them boxed and wrapped now i just need the bulbs! If anyoe wants to send there shipping info to me now so that i will have it that would be great.

Hi Becky I just send you an email, as I told you there, you should not feel responsable for what happened. In any case it has been a honest error, and you posting the invoice here let them realized what happened.
On the other hand, IF the reason why the order was delay till now is that error, THAT is not so honest.
I hope everything end nicely, and Thank you very very very and very much, for all you've done.

RE: Bloomingbulbs.com Group Order

| Hi Becky, I have sent you an email with my address. Thanks so very much for everything. Terence |
RE: Bloomingbulbs.com Group Order
| | |
| Hey, ALL! I ordered long before this group order. I never received a shipment notice, but that's okay. I didn't expect one since they are transitioning to a new system. My order was all mini's except for an Aphrodite that I bought for a b'day gift for a friend. Considering the discounted price (ordered early July, I think), the mini bulbs are much bigger and healthier than I expected. I am pleased! Ann |
RE: Bloomingbulbs.com Group Order
| | |
| Well the bulbs got here today minus the lemon sorbet bulbs, some of the Trentinos and one regular exposer I had ordered for myself. I packaged everything and it is ready to ship so for those without lemon Sorbet bulbs they will be in the mail in the morning. Hatta will have two shipments and one will be sent out tomorrow the other when the L. Sorbet arrives. The bulbs looked alright but I want to get them to their new homes as soon as possible. I will email the shipping costs as soon as I get home tomorrow, the bulb prices that i posted on the invoice above are correct so those of you that ordered can figure out the totals. Becky |
RE: Bloomingbulbs.com Group Order
| | |
| Thank you Becky! You rock! Regards,
Hatta |
RE: Bloomingbulbs.com Group Order
| | |
| Thanks Becky, looking forward to the bulbs. |
RE: Bloomingbulbs.com Group Order
| | |
Hi Becky,
are we getting lemon sorbet in one shipment? or two shipment like Hatta (one upon the arrival of lemon sorbet)
Checked on weather underground - the weather is getting colder in PA now. hope you're enjoying indoor bulb gardening/forcing :) |
RE: Bloomingbulbs.com Group Order
| | |
Well all the bulbs are sent out now EXCEPT for Ryan........ I need your address again please. I tried to email from this forum but you must not of gotten it. The box is ready to go and I would love to get it out today. I hope they all arrive safe and sound to their new homes. If you all could let me know that they get there to you that would be great, then I can stop worrying about them!
Becky |
RE: Bloomingbulbs.com Group Order
| | |
| How much do I owe you, Becky? I have not gotten an email from you. Cheers,
Terence |
RE: Bloomingbulbs.com Group Order
| | |
| Dear Becky! Just to let you know that I have received the first box that you sent on 29th Oct. All the bulbs are nice and firm, with tips of the buds peeking. SOOOO PERFECT! Thanks again for helping organising this! Hatta |
RE: Bloomingbulbs.com Group Order
| | |
| Dearest Becky, Received the bulbs in good condition on 13 Nov. Thanks you so much. Terence |
